I believe so. I know the lettering is identical but i'm not 100% sure whether its upside down or not.
lettering was upside down on mine when the springs where held upright.

^ mine were upside down as well.. though.. i hear a clanging noise now, its either the strut bolt is loose or the spring has snapped.. i thought it was the splash guards, but if i go slow, i hear something rattle. Now I'm starting to worry.. hasn't even been a year yet.. i have to swap wheels tonight.. I'll have to take a look.. hope its okay.. and my hotchkis sway bars squeak like no other.. even though it has grease all over it. scary suspension..

Dont really want to bring back a dead thread. But has the problem with Hotchkis springs been resolved or are people still dealing with rust on them?
