So you put the two spacers at the bottom and the spring on top? What is the difference/ so special between the yellow spring and the green plus two spacers?

Let's try it this way: 2 Spacers, Green Spring, Screw on Top. No Yellow Spring.

THe green + spacers is still softer than the yellow by itself. You want the softest spring that can hold the pressure and for most people, the green + shims can do that.
