    Cab v.s. Coupe

    noob question but i've searched and searched and cant seem to find an answer..

    Is there a difference between the suspension (i.e. springs/struts) on a vert in comparison to a coupe or sedan? besides spring rates, is there any real difference in I.D. or length that needs to be noted or are they indefinitely interchangeable?

    Any POSITIVE input is greatly appreciated.

        like ^he said, the rear springs in a cabbie are a little stiffer to compensate for the top being down. i have coupe H&R Race springs in my cabbie and it works out just fine.
