Springs for Leda coilovers

I bought a set of second hand Leda coilovers that originally came from Randy Webb. This set however came disassembled and had three sets of springs that were stamped 250, 350 and 450. Does anyone know which spring goes where? The previous owner was a little vague about why there were three sets of springs but seemed to remember that the 450 set was purchased later. Any insight would be appreaciated.

Thanks,

Mike

The 250's (barrel type, black, made by Leda most likely), go up front. The 350 or 400 are probably blue and made by Hypercoil, and go in the rear. Try the 350's first to see if they are ok. 400 starts to get a bit too much for the street...

First guess would be 250's in the front and 350's in ther rear. 400's might be a bit on the bouncy side.
