What are the difference between the Base EB and the PP EB springs? I've been searching the Internet and can't find anything. How much lower is the PP than the Base? Spring rates?

Thanks in advance,
Jason

PP and base are the same height. I don't recall the spring rates offhand but the front EB springs are stiffer.

Wrong. Go read the height difference, it is small, but exists. Also dampening is different.

PP front springs are the base GT springs. I have verified this via part numbers on my car. Haven't confirmed anything about the rear yet.

Where could I find this? Haven't seen anything on it yet, even after a forum search. The EB being a bit higher would make sense given the GT springs.

I parked next to a non-PP EB yesterday and I didn't suspect a thing

As confirmed in an earlier post the front springs are from the GT which gives it a bit of a rake. This thread has the information you are looking for.
I only saw speculation on the thread... did I miss something?

No you didn't.

Because of the 200 lb weight difference over the front wheels to use a GT spring on the EB the spring perch on the strut would need to be mounted lower in order maintain the same ride height.
