Default Eibach Springs Fitments. Please help

i am looking at buying a used set of pro kit springs. But they are from a 2001 GT coupe. Will they Fit my 88 convertible? I know that the drop will be more when using coupe springs in a convert. But will they sit right?



also please give some feedback on your experience with both the Pro Kit, And Sportline. im stilll trying to decide which to go with.

they all fit, the pro kit drops its a lot, i live on not so smooth roads
and they sucked, can't imagine how bad the sport lines would be
they look good but driving is another story, you will have to have upgraded shocks/struts to use them although
all 79-04 will fit each other, just different rates and heights

are u sure they will fit and actually lower the car, arent GT edges heavier than that 88 fox even tho it is a convertable, i would check the two curb weights and compare them, if they are faily close then they should be fine but not all springs will just interchange yet they will fit just maybe not lower or could lower too much

They probably will not work because they are different body styles.

well the pro kit is supposed to be a 1"-1.5" drop .... Sportline is like 2" so thats why im considering pro kit. my car is already slammed too low. the front tires are a small way into the fenders.. plusit dont handle too well becuaseits toolow.

im not. my car is dropped like 2.5" right now! plus i have bbk front springs and Motorsport in the back... whoever had the car before me did that. so i need to replace the struts and springs. im assuming going with eibach will give my car a much better ride.
