front springs are not interchangeable between 3rd and 4th gens, just rear

I don't think you can do that. The front suspension is a lot different on a 3rd gen compared to a 4th gen.
IMO, get some 3rd gen V8 lowering springs.

As mentioned the 3rd gen front springs will not work with your 4th gen.

I do offer just the front lowering springs if you are interested. They lower the car 1.25" in the front.

The listing for the springs can be found HERE

Please feel free to ask any questions
