NA & NB STANDARD SPRINGS

I need some help we have a set of NA & NB front and rear standard springs in our shed and are trying to figure out which are which. Can anyone advise how to tell the NA front and rear springs from the NB front and rear springs as there is nothing on them to say which is which. Thanks for any help you can give.

I'm not sure if its a hard and fast rule, but I think NA springs have flat ends (spring ends are tapered so to speak) and NB ones are round right to the end.

NA perches are flat while NB perches have a 'notch' to accept the rounded end of the spring.

Happy to be corrected though! :)

Yeap.

And the long ones go at the back.

Just pulled some off an NA and can confirm they are round all the way to the end.
No flat taped run out. I can give exact measurements if required.
