Suspension spring specialists 175 in lb x 11" (the box says 12", but I think they are 11") springs. Used but in serviceable condition. These look to run about $46/ea new.

$55/pr plus freight

A couple of questions.

Serviceable condition. I assume that means there's nothing wrong with them. I know springs last a very long time, but how old are they?

How's the ride height? Seems like they might be a little short.

Thanks,
Steve

"Serviceable condition" refers to the fact that Suspension Spring Specialists just paints their springs. No rubber coating. So, they surface rust. These have that layer of surface rust. I'd run them on a race car in this condition. On a street car they see a lot of water and tend to rust a lot faster so I might not install this brand of spring on a street car and just "drive it" (never back under it to inspect things).

I really don't know. They are part of the stuff that I collected with a certain orange SS over the weekend. I've never used them. I've been opening boxes and taking inventory of stuff so it can find a new home. You might PM Keith O on here, they may have come from his race car...but that's just a guess.

Sorry I don't have more info.
