    I need some help determining what the factory specs are on the rear springs of my 330 GTC.
    I just got the car and the previous owner replaced the rear springs when the suspension was rebuilt. The car sets over 2 inches higher in the rear than the front and has quite a bit of rake. If anyone has a factory service manual or knows where i could get new springs it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, Randy

    An alternative proposal which may solve the problem

    Step 1: remove springs from all 4 shocks
    Step 2: swap front and rear springs
    Step 3: reinstall

    It's a surprisingly common mistake to place the wrong springs on the wrong shocks, leading to the "drag racer" look. I've seen it a bunch of times.
