I can appreciate that it's today for your project but I'd wait till Monday. You have photos and this will help them (as well as the text write-up you posted). Replacing only one side (say the right) isn't dangerous but you'll need to repeat the same procedure (jack up car, remove fuse, undo plastic cover in trunk, undo air lines, etc.) twice.

Yea, I am thinking they sent me the wrong one. Sadly the left air spring is the one that has a hole in it on my X so that is really the only one the truck is in need of. The only reason I thought there was a slight chance that they are just different sizes is because in this write up:

The comparison photo makes it look like the new ones are different sizes, granted, he is putting on comfort springs and not the sport ones. That is what had me originally thinking they might just be different sizes for some random reason
