Question Supra TT Springs Discrepancy?

I don't know if this is normal, but one of my two front springs is ~0.22 inches taller than the other one. The rear ones are identical at about 1ft 0.6inches in length. Does it matter which side I put the front taller spring? I was thinking the driver side since it sees more weight? :dk: Also, can anyone confirm if these are TRD Supra TT Springs or stock OEM ones?

Shorter Front Spring:


Taller Front Spring:


Both Front Springs:

I would put the taller on the driver side.

Originally, I could see the taller one on the passenger side, because it sees less weight. Springs will sag over time with more weight on it. Its no wonder that ones shorter because the driver was on it most of the time... also, it holds the steering column + goodies.
