I need to replace the rear springs on my 142, and I'm finding that the standard springs (I don't want to lower) are hard to find at a reasonable price. So, I've decided to go with 200 series springs, which are plentifull and can be had for less than an arm and a leg. I know I need to get the upper retainer assembly to make up for the missing pig tail. I'm tempted to get the 245 springs rather than the ones for the sedans because this car will be carrying extra weight in the trunk for winter traction. I would much appreciate opinions and advice on this subject, particularly from anyone who has gone this route.
