The rear springs are the ones that have the most progressive rate. They will have the coils closer together on the top I believe. The front has a more linear rate. Not sure about part numbers though.

it should be in your instructions which ones go in the front and which ones go in the back. the shorter ones go in the front they also are thicker.

what size rims are you on? I am thinking about pro kit for my 94 LS with new 16s with 205/50s. I need to close the gap, but don't want to slam it. I was thinnking about neuspeed sofsport, but don't know if that will be enough, only .75" drop.

I would get some Neuspeed sports. I have the race springs and they are a little too low for my taste. The sports would be the perfect height.

The shorter stiffer ones go in the back and the longer ones go in the front.
