I tried those numbers in the parts software but they didn't come up as good numbers. When the system is done updating I'll try again later.

i dont think they actually came from any factory cars...

i thought they were just part of FRPP's performance parts catalog


i put the B's on mine and they are nice...supposed to ride better than the C's

Ya you got B springs. For some dumb reason I was thinking OEM springs when I was trying to find the numbers.

They are, but they also carry factory Ford engineering part numbers. Those numbers suggest a part first engineered for 1985.

I always heard they were factory springs off a fairmont or Lincoln.

Time to do some googling
