SS Springs Tag Numbers

I'm installing SS/SC springs on my 2.2 tomorrow, I have the set of four but I'm not sure which two go in the front and which two in the back. There are two sets of tags on the springs, I don't have them in front of me but couldnt someone tell me which one is front and which is rear?

compare them to the tags that are on the car. are those the springs i gave you months ago?

but seriously there's like one letter difference on the 2.2 and the 2.0. so for example (fake #'s i forget what they are) the one on the 2.2 is LX7 and the one on the 2.0 is LY7 or something like that.

the rears have a totally different #.

would it be okay to just put rear ss springs in my ls and leave the front ones alone?
and there arent any alignment issues with the rear, right?

would you see the same results or would the front wheel well still be higher? and you dont have to cut the bump stop right? because its a small drop?
