Downey torsion bar installation

I bought a set of downey torsion bars and can't tell which is left and which is right. The ends are painted red/green on one and blue/green onthe other. I was thinking the red ended one is right and the blue ended on left. Can anybody confirm this?

Thanks, Wes

Compare them to the stock ones when you swap them out. Do one at a time.

I don't remember anything being stamped on the Downeys I had. The forward splines are different from left to right.
