The replacement variable rate springs I used were purchased 10yrs ago through a classified ad that included a bunch of factory Volvo stuff so I assumed they were factory also, but I can't say for sure, and frankly doubt it now. In hindsight there was no need to replace my existing springs, since the spacer alone would have provided the lift I needed.

The recomendation given to me was to go with WAGON springs and not HD springs which were much stiffer. Others can perhaps give you a better comparison between the two. As I recall, the HD were really harsh with no load.
