I did my springs last week, replaced them for a set new ones from MR.
I did a check for you on my old original springs, and there I no noticeable different in spring length on they old ones ( may be 2 miliimeter) .
The length of my springs are 26,8 cm drivers side 27 cm passenger side.
These length is without the top mount.

My car is from November 1974 left hand drive US version. The car has about 40 k miles on and the springs look from first mount.
The dampers were once replaced for koni dampers I’ll guess.

The new ones are the same, since there is no different order nr for the springs.

I would mount springs with the same length any way, the shorter ones wil drop the car a bit.

I took down the rear US bumper and the car came up on the rear about 15 mm.
