Ah, another San Diegan..........Fred my '90 has JIT fronts, 954/200 lb. and
EMT 455/130lb rears.  I have an extra set of fronts from an '89 that are
also JITs.........thinking about putting them on the weak fronts on my '95.
The stock front springs on the '95 have sagged noticeably and the car has a
nice rake; I hate to disturb that with some springs that will put it up to
the right height.........
Mike
