Tein Flex Z Rear Coilover Question

[FineVisionz]

Hello,

Today im trying to install my rear tein flex z coil overs but I cant distinguish anywhere which one is the rear left and which one is the rear right. I got them second hand so they didn't come with an instruction manual so i've been using this post,

and step 25 states, "...Take note that the rear coilovers are also unique for each side, so pay attention!"

Thanks

I am not aware that the Flex A/Z Coilovers rears were unique. Is there anything indicating that they would be? (Markings, stickers, etchings, etc?). I know the fronts are clearly labeled on the camber plates.

When installing my Flex A's, I don't recall anything in the Tein instructions stating that the rears were specific to any side.

I would recommend contacting Tein directly for a copy of the manual. I have my Flex A manual at home if you can wait

I believe the part number tag will end in a "-L" or "-R" to distinguish them.

@FineVisionz I took a look at my old Flex A photos before the install:

• My fronts are labeled ZN6/ZC6-FR / VDTD8-11Y46-R and ...-L (Right and Left)
• My rears are labeled ZN6/ZC6-R / VDTD9-11931 (No left/right distinction)

Might be different for Flex Z. Worth looking at

I just checked my car with flex Z's and it looks like they are marked the same. No indication on the rears as to L/R.

I would say that if there is not factory marking indicating a difference they are likely the same and the comment on that install instruction is just a generic statement as some brands may indicate a difference.

Shouldn't be any difference
