110 suspension

I guess by 'blue/yellow', you mean the splash of paint on the spring - the code that identifies what rating/vehicle they fit etc ?
Don't know myself, but a quick Google found this:

i had the same problem, so a pair of YELLOW were fitted to BETTY no she stands level and looks nice....2" on the front and 1.5" on the back.. WITH BLACK MODS IS THE 2" LIFT
Sharpshooter:
My 110 has no spacers at the moment. I have an Mm4X4 2" lift kit fitted, with es9000 shocks. It handles perfectly, weather loaded or unloaded. The polybushes make a large difference too. I often have at least a ton in the back, and it doesnt make it unstable. The 110 pickups, have very little weight in the back (compared to a CSW). Mine has no self leveler either.
The 2"spacers im fitting to the front, ar purely to level it out a bit, as i have a very heavy duty BullBar going on. And maybe in the future a Winch.
Ill get some pics up soon, when i have fitted the spacers. :D
JD LWB:
Mine's a 1990 CSW with the self leveler on what I assume are standard springs and that sits nice and level unladen. :D
I haven't had any real weight in the back so-far, so I can't comment on what it does laden, but I assume that's what the self leveler is there for.
Range Rover Blues:
Yes the self-level 'pumps up' when the back suspension dips down too far so keeping the car level when loaded/towing without too hard a ride when empty. They can make the back a bit wallowy though as it is effectively a central spring.
