Need chassis code for base 850 Wagon 850 94

posted by  someone claiming to be Joe on  Sun Dec 31 10:36 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I'm swapping out the too stiff springs in my 94 turbo wagon which has the sport suspension, for some less stiff springs from a base 850 wagon, along w/ bilstein shocks (see my 12/27 post). Trouble is, there are three spring numbers for the front and three for the back for this car, and the dealer can't give me the right ones unless I supply a chassis code for the right car. So, can anyone who owns a 94 base 850 wagon (WITHOUT THE SPORT SUSPENSION!), pass along this number? It is part of the information on the product plate, which is inside the engine compartment, attached to the right side of the fender lip, next to the air cleaner. You will see two columns of information on the plate. The chassis code is the last row of numbers on the right column. Mine is 31XCEUS. Thanks!

I'd appreciate corresponding w/ anyone who has done this swap, and would be willing to buy the non-sport-suspension springs from a base model wagon from anyone who has swapped them out for stiffer springs. THanks.
