NL Pajero GLS Rear Springs

[motorazr]

I recently aquired a set of OME 910 rear coil springs for my pajero. I note they are tagged as A and B. Specs show that they are different heights.
Do I have two different springs, i.e. should I have two A springs or 2 B springs as matching pairs? or if they are correct which side does the A spring fit?

Longer spring is for drivers side shorter for passenger side

Thanks reply much appreciated

That would've been my guess, but for the record (anybody searching threads) this is for a live rear axle.

For reasons I don't understand, OME rear springs for Gen 3 / 4 with independent rear suspension, the taller spring goes on the passenger side.

Could be because of the camber of the road. Kerb side would be lower than the crown so to keep the vehicle level lhs would be longer. Just a thought

That's the only explanation that makes sense to me too.
