Defender springs

[Paul]

Hi I have just got hold of some springs of a td5 defender, thay are in great condition and i would like to fit them to my 1990 200 tdi. The problem is thay are colour coded (yellow & white)(yellow & blue)(blue & red)(blue & green) and i dont know whitch to fit to where on my land rover. Can any one help me or if you have a td5 Defender can you have a look to see if there are any colours on your car. Thanks Paul from the Isle of Man

CONFUSED!! I was trying to decipher the parts book!!
Part numbers may be handy for anyone looking to replace springs especially given L/rovers passion for supercessions!!!
