the springs won't disappear from now to when you get new shocks. I'd suggest waiting and doing the springs and shocks at the same time.

Good advice. I did them both at the same time. But if you have a hard time saving money you should buy the springs and not install them. Then buy the shocks later and install the springs on them before you put em on the car. Its much more time considerate to do it that way. Unless you get pillow ball mounts/camber plates then you'll have to use your stock top mounts with the aftermarket stuff. If you really need to buy something now and want to spend money then buy the shocks first, springs will only make the ride worse if your shocks are already worn out. You'll get that really bouncy **** every time you go over a bump on the road.


Sorry, to answer your original question, Yes you can use the springs that you dropped the car with when you get the new shocks.
