Right front spring?
I need to replace the front spring on my 1984 & I bought one from a 1990 but it looks like it's about 1/2" too wide. I haven't taken the old one out yet until I get braver. Does anyone know if it will fit or could it be adapted?

But I can tell you this, the General made changes every year, particularly as they related to the 84 since the ride was consideresd to be so terribly harsh
In 88 the entire front geometry was changed
So there is a very good chance that you need to look for an 84 spring
