need rear springs

[newregal]

Can the springs off a 91 camaro work on my 86 regal? If not is there any model vehicle that had better rear springs than others or are they all the same?

Anyone? Need to know soon.

I could be wrong...

...but I don't think F-body rear springs will work on a G-body Regal. G-body rear springs are tapered on the top and bottom, like these

(rear spring is vertical in the picture)

while F-body springs are tapered on only one end as seen here

Hope that helps!

They should work. I believe you have to change the spring isolator cup at the top of the spring to the f-body style. I know there are some guys on g-body. org that have done it with theirs.
Some of them use the cargo coils for g-body applications also.
Good luck!
