> Any more info on aftermarket spring rates?
> IPT #? 600/400 coliovers
IPT uses a generic 2.5" ID spring, of which you can buy virtually any
free length, and rate that you want. I'm not interested in slamming my 89,
so I'm running slightly taller springs (compared to what comes his kit).
Looking for a set-up that's slightly lower than the street eibach's ride
height, but want more spring control up front (under hard braking) more roll
stiffness from spring rate, and smaller sway bars. I have 425# for the
front, and 275# for the rear. Weather is shaping up nicely for spring, so
should be installing soon. Also the hardware and smaller sway bars is
significant in weight reduction, ~ 40 lbs.
