I'll look at mine in the garage when I get home and take a picture as they are in my Toytec box
Thanks. Just let me know what color is what side.

I imagine this isn't much help as I have no idea which side each came off of.
One of them has a white and green dot painted on the spring and the other one has a white and orange dot painted on the spring.

Bummer. Which one has more coils on it?
Can anyone with 2014 SR5 Premium prove for me that the white/red spring should be on driver's front? Please. Thanks.

The drivers side will have one more coil to accommodate the drivers weight and gas tank. Can't remember what color is which at the moment I'll try and take a look later.
Yeah, that's what is confusing with below. Seems to me like my white/red has one more coil but is on passenger side. And it is definitely red.
Thanks. You would think, but mine is definitely red and the other is yellow.
I should state I have a 4x2 and not 4x4 if that matters.
Driver
Passenger

Isn't most of the extra weight 'unsprung' weight?

Front Diff, Half Shafts, and Front Driveshaft and Transfer Case are certainly "Sprung"
Still not having any luck with determining which spring should be on which side. I've tried calling a couple parts guys, and they can just give me part numbers. I'm assuming that these part numbers are stamped where I can't see them unless I disassemble.
So everyone else (except Saker, sorry), states that the extra coil should be on the drivers side. Just wish I could make a final determination before contacting 4wheelparts.

No need to apologize!
Oh, BrianIM has the same color coil paint on the same sides as mine on his T4R....!!!
No one has counted coils on there vehicle other than me, unless I missed it, if I did please correct me.
I know for a fact that nothing has been changed on my truck other than replacing the shocks with TRD/Bilstein Off Road suspension shocks from a FJ.
I watched the tech replace my shocks one side at a time.
Counted coils on each side and took measurements with a micrometer of the coil diameters.
Measured heights and got the same height from side to side.
My truck is level from side to side depending where I take the measurements.....if I take them in my garage (isn't perfectly flat) the difference is between 1/4 and 3/8" lean on drivers side.
I just state what is on my truck....and I am satisfied with my results at this point....
I hope you get it worked out, we all want to know the answer on your 4X2 T4R
What is the difference in drivers side and passenger side height currently on flat concrete???

Yeah, I was hoping I could get more people to post their coil counts, regardless of 4x2 or 4x4.
Last I measured, drivers side is roughly 3/4" or a little more lower than passenger side.
