factory black ones?

Curious as to the colour paint dabs on them, on their top few coils, one colour on each coil

I think the 4WD wagons got two colours per spring, pink, green, orange

I suspect all black springs in rear of the sedans , one was a single yelow paint dab. Dunno if this was RX or FWD sedans.

Any help by fellow hoarders or L sedan owners will be appreciated in identification first instance

hey as i have my two as ornaments next to my tv i can tell you that the top spot is pink the next one is orange thats on the 93 4wd l series

Thanks Luke. Need moore on the other non wagon stuff so keep it coming please people.

Digital antennae Luke?

I have 4wd wagon springs in my RX, I can check on the weekend for you if you like.
They are eventually gonna be replaced with some red Pedders I have laying in the shed

Just for the experience, yes , thanks Gannon - I'd like to hear your findings on colours.

Curious if your red Pedders have a number.

Pedders list #7249 with a 154mm shock for 84-87 L wagons,
same spring with 130mm shock on 87-94 L wagons.
same spring with 154mm shock for 84-90 FWD sedans

Looks like they have the one spring for all L Series applications, just change the shock.

I am thinking the original FWD sedan rear spring with its thinner wire - not likely to reproduce such a scrawny spring.

Pedders also have a coil spring that may fit L Series rear shocks, giving a varyng rate depending on which size shock you go, what type L and different ride height and feel - softer #2213
