    Son started replacing drums, shoes, cylinder, etc on my 2002 LIberty sport. The parts that came in from RockAuto have 4 yellow springs all the same size . My jeep currently has a yellow and an orange on each side. The orange is visibly larger and has almost half the coils. Is this an acceptable replacement. The books show orange or green for the larger. The kit was to be complete and while the number of springs is correct. The size and color isn't! Plz advise!! Will attempt to show it of old and new. Thanks

    Stop by the local Jeep parts department and inquire about replacement OEM drum brake springs color and differences in spring size/# coils, orange vs yellow. RA can be a pain for returns and I'd just bite the bullet and go OEM for brake performance as designed.
