    If they are stock from the factory there will be paint stripes or dabs on one or two of the coils. You then need to have the '83+ set up manual (forgot the name but it's not the owner's manual) and reference the color code for the spring rate.

    You can tell from looking at the coils in your photo they are a progressive rate spring. See the spacing difference?
