(scratching head) My guess would be that the pair that's visibly thicker should be the front springs.

If you have good balance you could stand on one spring from each (one spring at a time of course, not one spring under each foot) and see which compresses farther - and should be the rears. Though I guess that tests viability depends on how much you weigh...

Wow, looks like Tein's S.Tech manual is an extremely unhelpful 2 pages. My HAs had a dozen or so pages, pictures of everything, diagrams of what to do... (though the actual instructions are in Japanese)
