Rear Blue Springs

So I have these blue springs that were in the “trunk” of one of my parts cars. I assume they are rear springs for third gens but I don’t know anything about them. Can anyone tell me what brand they are?
About 13 inches long and ½ inch in diameter
Do they lower the car or maybe make it handle better?

The same car has special looking front springs too. They appear to be new and “whitewashed” in color. About the consistency of baby powder.

Any help is appreciated.

Re: Rear Blue Springs

Well, I put them in. The pic in my sig shows my car with the stock IROC rear springs and the other pic shows the blue springs installed.

Took it for a test drive.. Pretty stiff to say the least.


I'm worried about bending something or screwing up the Ujoint because of a new pinion angle. Any advise on the subject?
