vert

wrong answer vert springs have a different rate in the rear if you use others it will sag.
these springs have been designed with a rate increase of approximately 20% (front - 139 lb/in) and 20% (rear - 134 lb/in) with a modest drop of 1/2-inch (front and rear). vert

These springs have been designed with a rate increase of approximately 20% (front - 156 lb/in) and 20% (rear – 128 lb/in) with a modest drop of 1-inch (front and rear).none vert.

would be kinda like a old lady sagging with your teeth gettin rattled out

Talking vert

according to racing beat the rates are stock just lower on the verts springs so as you can see the rears are heavier on the vert and on the others they are heavier on the front .
