stock spring markings right/left blue yellow

I'm going back to stock and probably going to sell my H&Rs. But when putting back the springs, I noticed they're marked blue and yellow. I can't remember if blue is driver or passenger side.

anybody?

I thought the markings meant if you had SE springs or regular... and I thought the markings faced laterally when installed correctly? I'll check my fsm when I get home.

Both left and right springs have the same color markings on mine.
Three dots, a single one then two on the next coil down.

Let me know if you will be selling your H&Rs. I'm looking for a set. Thanks.

the fsm says nothing about color designation for left or right, only for transmissions for the front and trim models for the rear.

edit: in the 98 fsm its says yellow dot right hand side. the 95 fsm doesnt list sides and the 99 fsm doesnt list anything at all.

I'm looking at my 97 FSM book.
For manual tranny, you should have 2 yellow and 1 yellow marks
For auto tranny, 2 yellow and 1 white.

Nothing about left and right.

I have 98 FSM in PDF format, but that info's already posted. But then again, the PDFs are updated regularly. Send me email if u want to see the FSM.
