Just looking for a whole assembly that matches the stock height of the marauder

you'll prolly have to cut a coil or 3/4 of a coil off. marauder springs are discontinued and parts revert to a marquis. there have not been any aftermarket companies that have exact parts for the front. either use your old springs or plan to possibly cut a coil after install to see where it sits.

Spring rates for the GM / CV are not the same a special service (cop car) vehicle. My car has Special service vehicle springs on it with one full ring cut off, it really needs to be 1.5 cut off. Marauders are lowered and the spring rate needs to be higher than the standard CV / GM spring rate.

The above description is indeed for a strut. However, our Marauders really did not come with struts. Struts are the common name for MacPherson struts. All of Ford's Panther chassis cars came with a double wishbone front suspension, which is not a strut type.
A combination shock and spring "conversions" are available, and is often called a strut. I replaced my OEM front shocks and springs with a pre-assembled pair of Monroe "Quick Struts"

As I typed before:
KYB shocks (with bushing kit) at KYB discount
OR
Monroe Super/Server Duty.
I have the KYB and they are a little tight in front, waiting for them to settle in a little. Love the in rear set up.
