I'm guessing that all the writing on the spring has worn off...

Compare the two springs...which one is thinner? The thinner one is most likely for the rear.

Also, push down one the spring to determine which is stiffer. Usually the stiffer one goes in the front...

yup, beefiest spring goes in front to support motor weight, brake force, etc.

kinda OT, but what shocks are you using w/ the coilovers?? I can't find the spring rates and thus haven't been able to find a really good match of shocks. Thanks
