front springs

this might be a suspension forum question. but i wanted
guys that know my year of truck to answer.
i have a mustang two front end. and the coil springs that are
on it now are junk, i cut them to get the ride heighth.
i want to order new springs. the free heighth of the new
springs are 11 inches. the same as the old ones.
but my problem is i want it 1 to 2 inches lower.
could i get springs rated a lower weight to lower the
font end or will i sacrafice the proper spring ride with softer springs. any help would be great....thanks

I would call up Eaton springs and tell them what you need, a lower rate would bottom out easier.
