Coil Springs (specs v build)

A few additions to the data set, and we now have 6 (+1) different combinations of front/rear spring sets. In ascending order of spring rate:

I think you are the only one so far with red triangles on the front. I thought all the front springs had dots on so far 🤔

So we are getting a pattern here. Diesel with no winch must be similar weight to petrol with winch and so shock absorbers with green circles. Only two seat versions get green triangles on the back shock absorbers
 
Hmmm, yet froggy is 2 seat with a winch and has red front and back ? Need to know Petrol/Diesel.
 
I might have to upgrade to red springs at the front if I keep the dogs superglued on the bumper, it was the only way to get a photo.
 
Thank you to all those that provided the data requested - all now added to table:

The one that stands out there is @froggy . 2 seat Diesel with winch so understandable with red dot on front spring but why red on back springs. No side steps and nothing different to mine apart from don’t know if he’s got a tow bar or steel v alloy wheels. @Michael H. has a 2 seat with green springs at rear the same as me
