TRD Progressive Springs - Left or Right?

Regarding TRD progressive rate springs for a Tacoma, someone hinted to me that there is a difference between the passenger side spring and the driver's side spring. The difference being that the driver's side is longer. I am also told that they are marked differently; one green and one purple. Is this so? If it is, which color goes on which side?

(I am a cheap individual who is receiving and installing someone's leftover 2001 coil-overs on my stock 95.5 4x4 extended cab.)

--Thank you.

Okay, I'll respond (to myself). I have one off-board vote for the purple/blue marked spring from a Tacoma prerunner V6 extracab being the longer of the two.

I believe the longer one goes on the gas tank (passenger) side.

Hes right from my understanding. The longer one goes on whichever side your tank is on

Longer one on the gas tank side. Okay, that would correspond with the "long one on the driver's side" vote. The gas tank is on the driver's side on my tacoma and both of my gen3 4Runners.
