Different widths I believe...There was talk of the springs being a slightly different length too.
There's litterally dozens of different springs for the Transits.

I’ve also had new ones that the centre locating pin has bee in the wrong place only noticed it when comparing the springs when off the van as knobby says there is loads of them just like Ford exhausts can be a right minefield to get the correct one.

Fwd up to 260 - 300s have narrower leaf springs but as far as I know all rwd are same width
Not sure if length differences are due to more bend in uprated springs which would make the seem shorter until fitted and some weight on them
