Does this help?

34 has spring above.
35 on has spring in front.
35/36 wishbones flare out in front of the axle.
37-40 are straight in front of the axle.

There's a start for you.

It's a lot harder for us to tell you what you have without seeing it, than it is for you to take a pic. Work with us and we will do our best to help.

32-36 are the same, 37 up are wider.
It took me 10 seconds to do a google search.
