If your Galant is AWD (All wheel drive), it has the same springs as VR-4- Therefore, the best place to get them is: www.whiteline.com.au/store ('http://www.whiteline.com.au/store')
You can also use springs (Eibach sportlines, H&R etc...) for 1G AWD Eclipse (1990-1994), but you'll have to cut front springs a bit to get it even. Galant is a little heavier, so the rare end drops a bit more than on Eclipse. To get your car straiht, you must cut front springs a bit.

If you have FWD Galant (Front wheel drive) you can get them from Intrax I think, and there are a few other you can consider... As before You can also use springs for !G FWD Eclipse and cut the fronts...

Good luck! 8)

well my galant is FWD but i want the front a little higher so that weight distrubution works out ok for the take off and things like that. so 90-93 eclipse will match up for sure someone has tried it.? i checked the part numbers and things like that and they are different.

spring length/rates:
tel fwd front green-12.9 in 134 lbs
lt blue-12.4 134
awd pink 12.9 146
galant vr4 orange 14.2 134

tel fwd rear orange 13.1 140
awd purple 12.46 128.8

galant vr4 pink 15.3 112.0

additionally, shock rates vary immensly. ie:
tel fwd frt is 220/66 rear 198/66
galant vr4 309/99 265/99

so, springs are different lengths, shocks are different rates, now, you tell me that they work? additionally, if you put galant springs on tel shocks, they are tuned? even preload is different. and you wonder why the car rides like crap or dont handle.
