Default PRS Spring upgrade

I'm upgrading the rear springs on the rear of my 89 RS. When I corner hard thebody hits the rear tire. I checked out the rear suspension andI have standard springs (I built the car to drag race). I just picked up the1LE style progressive rate springs for the rear, this should fix my problem. The question is, because this is kinda an easy job, does anybody want me to post pics and a little how to? This is kinda a cheap upgrade, espicially for the early 3rd gens and the base model cars. The rear springs are about $55 at AZ.

Sure, go ahead and post any tips and how to's about that. I have a 4th gen but never did any major mechanic work on it myself. So reading some tips wouldn't hurt.

alex, i have a 4th gen and know probably any question you'll have about 4th gens. I have several upgrades that i've all done myself. So if you have a suspension question, ill probably know it for 4th gens.
