DS = driver's side

PS = passenger side

There are different length springs to compensate for the distribution of weight to one side of the vehicle (engine and tyranny is slightly offset to driver's side...drive-line runs under passenger side).

Other people just run the same length spring on both sides of the vehicle.

Jess, this is to compensate for the "Disco Lean" but in some cases will actually make it worse.
