Just bought new springs for an 02 Tacoma. Set them side by side on ground, flex up and one is higher than other. Seems like one is flexed more than the other. Is this ok or are they defective or what? Please help need to install tomorrow if possible.

It is normal for spring to have a little difference but you need to ensure they are of the same specifications.

Measure the guard height on both sides, drive for a week and re measure, they may just need to settle in a bit.
