I have had to take my lowering springs off and put my standard ones on just to pass the fecking MOT. We took the struts off and replaced them on the car after changing the springs and something just isn't right.

The symptom looks like the front right wheel is on a decline and it doesn't look or drive right...

Does it matter what side each strut goes on or does it not matter (as they appear exactly the same).

This is for a Corsa b SXi 2000 reg. Thanks for your help. Andy
