I've got a lift on my D1 but with the weight of the bar/winch/batteries the front is 50mm lower than the rear. I'm thinking as an easy fix to put the original rear springs in the front. Will they fit straight in?

Perhaps a silly question but I can't recall which ones are the rear ones, they're all the same free length but I'm guessing the rears are the pair with the tighter wind?

Disco, RRC and 90 can swap springs front to rear and back, and the more winds the softer the rate, so for the same free length their ride height will be lower.

What brand springs are they? the King Springs I have are noticeably taller in the rear and have a code printed on them to differentiate front, rear, left or right.
