hi, im going to change my rear spring in my convertible 91 gt, and because im in a budget im looking for some thing un expensive springs, some ones stocks that i can use to get better ride and specially a better traction to better launchs, ive notice that so many fellas install an a 4 cil spring in their notch´s, a friend of mine is going to give as a present his rear lx 5.0 stock springs, so i know that the convertible uses an specific springs rates, i think ins because the bigger weigth, any way, i will like if any of you guys have the rates of the stock springs, i mean the lx 4 an 8 cil, the notch, the convertible, the hatch, etc.

thanks a lot in advance

This page will tell you all about stock Fox suspensions.

I believe others tend to go with the bit stiffer 400lb/in, 1993 4 cyl front springs.

Some more info here.

Another cheap option that could work is used Mach 1 springs. They do ok on aero fox verts.

Good luck.

In paper I have that handbook, electronically no. I believe that webpage is just an example of what's inside the book, just happens to be info on the area you need. The book only cost me like $30 though, easily worth it.
