2nd gen spring rate

That's a sticky one. There were dozens of spring combinations used depending on GVW and other factors.

I could probably find the part #s for them, but it would be a lot. If you buy a set of Moog springs, they consolidate some rates/ranges as well.

Don't worry about it... unless the part # is cast on the spring somewhere I haven't gotta clue what they'd be and/or if the one in the camaro is even stock anymore...

Is there any way a DIYer can measure spring rate at home?

I actually have a list of all of Moog's spring rates by part # on my website if that helps any.

it would if I had Moog springs... which I don't. I'll look and see if I can't reverse engineer the part #'s into Camaro or TA spring rates...

I checked - it worked. :) Looks like the spring in there is either the same or slightly softer - I'll throw in my TA spring and see if it helps - apparently the racing springs are in the 1000+ in/lbs. rating, but I'm about out of money...
