Only place I saw them sold was CJ Pony Parts, but that was over 2 years ago. I do not believe the Racecraft Springs are made anymore. I tried to find a set so I had a spare for my Mustang (Already has them). Best bet would be to contact Saleen and see if they have any left.

I actually bought some Saleen springs used recently and will be running them on my car. The stance is definately nice, not slammed in the weeds, but not sitting too high!

I have Saleen Racecraft springs on my '89... I always thought the Saleen springs were powdercoated Eibach Pro-kit...?

1987 thru 1989 Saleen's (excluding SSC's) had specific rate springs with a front rating of 650 lbs. and rear rating of 300 lbs. The Racecraft Springs give the car a great stance and the handling is incredible, but the ride quality is pretty poor (trust me). Great set-up if you live in a pothole free society.

I recommend the Sportlines. Great stance with excellent handling.
