since we talk about springs...

I have one '85 weekender with poptop (no kitchen) and the rear sags quite
bad...

I have another '85 tintop and the rear doesn't sag at all.. btw it's quite
high... higher than my Carat but lower than my Syncro... just in the
middle...

errr... so why's the difference? did they put different springs for the
same '85 year?
