Pedders lowering springs special?

So, they don't advertise the spring rate or other info on them. They cost more. Do they know something the other drop spring vendors don't know?
Better match for the Camaro suspension components?

They are hot wound, good tolerances and a higher spring rate snd firmer from what I recall. Check out Pedders book on camaro thread. I prefered and had Hotchkis 1" springs

At least confirm stock in hand of whichever vendor you go with. Pedders still has some parts out there through some of the Camaro5 vendors, but I wouldn't count on it.

I would highly advise against ordering directly from Pedders until you can get confirmation they are officially back in business.
