It's my turn for a stupid LC rear coil question, difference between front and rear?

Not really MY stupid question but I'm buying LC coils from a guy for $20. The only problem is that he has the front coils as well and can't remember which set is which. He said that he assumed the coils with more wraps are for the rear, but my thinking is the ones with more wraps would be up front for the weight of the engine? There is a picture and the ones with more wraps are significantly longer.

I'd say the shorter ones with less wraps are the rears but does anybody know FOR SURE?

Thanks in advance for any replies

That's all I needed to know! I have a picture to work with but the guy who pulled them off himself didn't know which were which.

Sorry Wab lol, I didn't see anything in that thread that showed me the difference between the front and rear springs visually, but that doesn't mean it isn't there
