Spring rates and fit
I have found a big crack in the front spring on my 95.
The spring is marked FHA and I want a new one with a similar rate. To save some money I want to try to find a used one.
When I have searched here I have found these two lists of spring rates:

http://www.tubas.net/vette/spring-codes.xls
Both lists agree on the rate for the FHA being 93.1
Will the other springs with similar rates (FHC, AA and FSK) fit a 95?
The rates for the FSS differs in the two lists, does anyone know what the correct rate is?
Thanks in advance

From my research, FSS is 75 N/m (or 73, I forget which), though that probably doesn't make you any more sure than you were before.
EDIT: Now that I actually looked at the links you posted, if you scroll down later in the tread for the first link, someone corrects the FSS rate to what I mentioned above.
