I started restoring my 86 T type recently and the coil springs I bought about 5 years ago are about 1/2 inch shorter than than my old originals. The part number is 14029396 with CDB written on the tag. I know this is not the number in the GM parts books for these cars but I can't find this part number for any other car either. Does anyone know if these are the right springs? I assumed my old springs would be a little shorter due to the fact they are 24 years old but not the other way around. Any help would be appreciated

So I got screwed, I should of checked on them when I bought them instead of stashing them away. Do you know if they will work on our cars?

I put them up on Ebay and nobodys bidding. If anyone can use them make me an offer.

I'd suggest joining one of the F-body sites and selling them there. There is an active following for the 1LE cars.
