Springs on a 90 wagon ?

Hi guys,

my springs are really dead now, I think they are still original, and the car has 265k miles...
I was thinkink of putting slightly higher springs, as I often go on very bad roads...is there any other springs from another car that I can use on a corolla wagon (1990) ??
thanks for the help

from MOntreal,

Greg

Question

springs don't go bad often, the struts do. Is that what you mean? New struts will keep it up in the air.

I really believe the problem is from the springs...the car is too low when compared to other corollas...the car is not bouncing around at all, but when loaded with people at the rear, the wheels sometimes touch the wheel arches...
