I have an 89 760 that I would like to replace front springs and struts. I have already done a conversion on the rear from IPD for the Nivomats, and it is still a bit high in back.

Since the 760 is designed to have a softer ride - would it be a good idea to go with 740 springs (which I would figure might be a bit stiffer).

I note that Groton has both in the Scan Tech. Also I was thinking that a bit stiffer spring might give the front a bit of a lift, and also balance better with the IPD conversion.

Opinions, experience??

Thanks
Andy Smith
