How an I tell which suspension I have?

Well the camaro failed the inspection due to the steering gear box leaking and play blah blah and I went to salvos and tried to buy the part and they asked me do i have the soft ride suspension or non soft ride suspension and I need to know that in order to order the part

I have a 1990 Camaro RS 305tbi can anyone help me?

never heard those terms before, but you have the standard box, which i would assume is the soft ride one by their options. The other would work too, it should the quick ratio box.

This is the one used on performance-oriented cars, such as the IROC. Recommended.

Re: How an I tell which suspension I have?

Either will fit & work, but the quick ratio (WS6) would be a better choice.
