4kq vs. 90q spring rates tested (for the archives)

[Todd Phenneger <phen9461@uidaho.edu>]

Ok guys, I promised I'd post this when I did it.  Got the spring rates
rear only) tested on the 87' 4kq and a 90q I found at the Junk yard.
	4kq springs sagged a bit which could skew measurements.
Anyhow,
90q springs are definately a bit thicker upon initial measurement.  Also,
they sut about 1" higher un-compressed.  Now, maybe if the stock springs
weren't sagging as m;uch they would sit a bit higher but not 1" I doubt.
	Anyhow, at 1" compression they rated as follows.
4kq rear - 120lbs
90q rear - 130lbs.

	So, I'll post my results after putting the 90q springs in back.
With no AC and a battery in the rear my 4kq sits HIGH in front and LOW in
back so this should correct it.  I also expect an increase in oversteer.
Yipee.
