I thought that I couldve done the same thing but I triple checked before I installed. And even if it is true. The front should be 1.4 and rear 1.2. If atillas drop is .8 and slammed mine should be too with the 1.2 in front.

spring rates between the front and back differ, as do spring height. springs that drop 1 inch that are made for the front probably won't act the same in the back and vice versa.

just count the number of coils on the front vs. the back and PM someone with the same springs and compare. easier than redoing it
