80q/90q springs to raise 4kq

[Brady Moffatt]

Todd/All,

I'd like to raise the rear AND front for winter only. I have another setup
ready to go for summer (Boge/Intrax).

Do you know if the 4kq shocks have enough travel for the longer springs?

All I really want to do is find some used 80q/90q springs, and put them in
along with new strut bearings, then enjoy the winter when it comes. Just
trying to make sure it'll work as easily as I hope it will!

Cheers,
Brady

Brady,
  You want 90q rear springs.  Doesnt matter what year.  I got
mine off a 1990 car.  Raises the rear about an inch and makes it
marginally stiffer as well.  Basically, that 1" just makes it
ride level again.
  Nice cheap upgrade.  But some Bilstien HD's in while your in
there.
