I have a set of stock 1990 5.0 Springs in my garage.

Which ones are the the rear springs?

I believe its the shorter ones with the coils spaced further apart?

Or is it the longer ones with the coils tighter together?

Rears have a tighter pigtail, kinda cones at the bottom....fronts are pretty much the same shape all the way down.
