I just looked up in the Ames catalog and it would be the S325 that you must have ordered. That's the only spring that Ames lists the specs for and it appears to me that they are the Moog 5390. Even though I have A/C, my front weight will probably be lower than a stock non A/C car. The 5390 is one step lower than the 5386 which I have now and the 5374 would be next step down from those.
