It may be much easier to do this and add weight until it reaches 10mm, then find that weight and divide by ten.
After some initial travel, one can do this, but the quantity of weight really adds up quickly for doing shock springs. On fork springs, it is quite accurate.
See if there is a suspension shop close by that has a large spring rate tester.

You can also measure the coils to see which one is thickest.
Not an exact science, but it works if you have several similar models. a 42nm you can for sure differ from a 45 or 48 spring with this model.
Without a spring rate tester youre not getting any type of accurate measurement.
Are all four the same height and width? If so, then if one has thinner or thicker coils, you can place them in an order.
Some KYB factory springs came with a paint dot on them.
A quick look at them didn't show any markings at all.
Having to install them all and try to adjust sag sounds like a pain in the butt!
I'll probably weigh it and see how it stacks up against the other 3 springs so I can figure out what those are.
