    I would get the total weight of the car and % of weight on the rear, then measure the width of the spring, the distance between mounting brackets on the frame and the position of the pin hole on the bottom spring. With this info any spring house should be able to recommend the proper spring for the ride you require, soft, regular, hard, etc. They may also want the length of the shackles.
