Moog springs equal to 87s,88s?

[Dirtyd]

I searched and searched and cannot find a straight answer. Does anyone know what Moog springs would be equal to 87s,88s?

Sorry if this is a repost, I searched

[djthumper]

nope, no one has found out

I tried Moogs a few years ago. I went with the one that matched the 86's in spring rate (I called the manufacturer to verify). My ride height stayed the same, and now has sunk a little since installing the skid plate and grille guard.

Also, they've rusted more in the 1 1/2 they've been on than the factory 83's did in 9 years.

Rob, do you have the part number you used? It might be that it gives an idea of what the next stiffer spring might be.

I don't have the part number anymore. I got the spring rate by calling the manufacturer. Since this was 2 years ago, my memory is foggy, but I got the number by calling Rock Auto.

might just bite the bullet and order the moog 14's.. not bad at 60shipped

snow mirage's purchase of the 81114's peaked my interest a little.
I just sent an email to Moog asking their spring rates and any other information they have on the following springs.

81110 (should be 375)
81112
81114
81116 (for SS and Saab)

I got a response from the guys at moog-suspension-parts.com basically telling me they weren't the MFG to go ask the guys at federalmogul.com. We'll see how that goes.

I also found a SAAB website that shows they have the 87 and 88's. I sent them an email to find out if they really have them and how many sets they might have.
