Default Sprint Springs

Since we have been talking about suspension stuff I went and looked at a few places about springs. I found a cheap place (RockAuto ((I know I know)) that listed a pair of front springs for $80 or less. Not knowing what the exact wire diameter is or any other dimensions, what should I be looking for.

What have you guys bought as a replacement for springs on your Sprint FB's?

call eaton springs and ask them to match what was OEM
they have the rates
this would be a good time to upgrade to the ride and handling package.

Coil Spring Specialties is who I use for custome or OE rate replacements. I have never been disappointed.
