Ok...I need to get rid of my SS springs, so if you pay me to ship them to you, you may have them!

By any chance, are the rear springs tapered? I doubt it since it's a 92, but weirder things have happened...

They aren't junk, actually in very good condition, just dirty.

I don't know if they will work on an NA wagon or not...fronts will, dunno about the backs. I believe they are a little bit "sportier" than NA springs.

I'll take the fronts if you'll separate... shipping to 13676??

if you won't separate, let me know shipping for front and rear


*edit

actually let me know shipping for front, AND front/rear, if you could... and I"ll decide then :o

Suspension FAQ says SS springs have a 132/132 rate, and N/A has 123/129. That's not much difference as far as getting a sportier feel.

I don't need a sportier feel neccessarily, although it would be nice.. just need struts/springs that aren't junk. and free springs are good springs!!


and yes, thanks for the FAQ link.. somehow I didn't even know that was there.. :smt033

Last year I talked to Julien at Lachute Subaru and he stated that the standard twgn spring rates were 225 front and 180 rear.

this is firm but not uncomfortable and the handling was much improved by Whiteline bars---20mm front and adjustible rear 20/22/24 :)

It would be my preferance that you take all 4 springs, as I kinda need to get rid of them as they are in my parents' shop.

As far as shipping goes...I don't know what the weight of them would be...

Sooo...I am thinking that they weigh 40lbs at the most...and Fedex would want $40 to ship it to you...so let me know what you decide...

PM me and I will get you some paypal info :-D
