Landrum no longer lists a 5" by 16" spring on their website which i have found works in alot of applications, varying rate of course. I've had three sets of 18" springs come in, two sets for gm cars and one set for an fe Mustang and most were closer to 16" when i finally got the ride height right.

Which spring did you use on the Mustang 180 or 200? I have a pair of 180.

MY69396,

It's been a couple of years but i'm pretty sure they were 180's.
