Default 82-92 F-body performance suspension

How can you tell if an 82-92 F-body has the performance suspension? Thanks.

You are going to look for RPO code WS6 (at least on the Pontiacs...not sure if Camaros had a different code).

RPO codes can be found on the underside of the storage lid in the center console, or inside the door to the locking storage compartment in the rear hatch area.

Thanks for the help. I almost forgot that I asked the question . Next time I go junkyarding, I want to look at these cars for the steering gear, the 12.7:1 one, and wanted some clues as to which ones would have it.
If those stickers are gone, I guess they have larger sway bars too that would be a clue to a WS6? Any idea what size bars they have?

24mm is the biggest rear bar you can get.
Also, just because there is a emblem that states Performance Package on the dash, doesn't mean it has the WS6 package.
Depending on the year of the car, grabbing a wonderbar is a great item too.
You can only find these on the IROC-Zs.
Not all cars got the RPO sticker on the cars.
This came out around 1985.

Hope this helps,

George
