one yellow on front is 30mm lower
one green on rear is 30mm lower

No idea what one green & one yellow on rear is. Do you have measurement from wheel arch to center of wheel?

I think I have some measurements somewhere for different springs, but can't find them.

Rear springs

Post by trundletruc »

The standard springs on the back of my van have 2 yellow and 1 green mark.

Does that answer the original question?
