A quick answer about springs needed, please...

[Steve Sears]

Shaun,
I had both of the front springs on my '87 5ktq replaced a month or so ago.
Apparently the 5ktq/200q front springs are NOT the same as the 5k, nor the
5kq.  I was able to get some used replacements, otherwise I would have _had_
to go with H&R (story for the SO) Note: I looked into H&R, etc.  Apparently
the Southern Ontario shops are more geared up for Rice Rocket
springs/coilovers than the same for our cars.  I could have ordered them
from the US, but would have been soaked by a combination of Canadian peso
exchange rate and border hassles.  oh well, I guess I should keep the
clearance for frequent visits to construction sites anyhow.
Cheers!
