Which is the front 500# or 400#

My MK4 manual from Dec 2012, rev. 3R calls out the rear shocks at 350# (solid axle). No expert, but wouldn't the higher-rated shocks go to the front?

Factory front is 500#.

Thanks guys I thought the higher would be front. Any one have a clearance on headers to the foot box drivers and pass on an Fe install

Hey Donnie,

Brenton (Vote For Pedro) just sent you pics of my shocks.
Front springs are 500# and the rears are 350#, but I've got a straight axle rear.
Check your phone.
