Hmmm... I got the 8428 and there are both types, light and dark grey, included.
The light ones are used for the rear suspension and the single dark grey one
is used for the lift mechanism of the rear axle.
And the dark one IS firmer than the light ones. Also, the wire of the spring
seems to be thicker and the spring has less windings.
