In your other post I said Rockauto has the springs. I failed to mention that for some reason they're listed under the Cutlass heading. Lots of stuff is scattered around in their listings for some reason, have to check all the A body listings to find stuff sometimes. They were when I ordered mine too. I double checked at the Moog site and they were the right ones. I ordered the wagon w/air (it has air) front springs and the wagon cargo coils for mine.

Jamesbo, took me a minute to find your car, for some reason I was drawn to the back wall of your shop.

Front springs, yes. From the dashboard forward the Vista is identical to a Cutlass. The rear springs have a different spring rate for the wagons.
