I have a buddy that has a new set of hotchkis springs for a 4th gen camaro 1 1/2" drop. Will these work on my 87 regal?
 
don't the 4th gen Camaros' have strut front suspension? if they do then no they wont work. and if not... they might be a little light and I think the spring diameter would be wrong. if memory serves me correct the g body's have a 5 1/2" diameter front spring. all f bodys ( non strut cars) I believe only have 5" diameter springs.
 
NO. 4th gen f body cars used coil over struts. Those springs will not work in our cars.

you can use the 3rd gen fbody springs those the ones that work but you have to get a certain model like the say the Iroc-z or the gta any of those are the ones that you would want to get.
