Default Rear Springs

It was me...

I have had a price of £48 each plus vat and delivery from Faulkner. This is for a barrel spring (fat in the middle) rated at 400LB/IN and a free length of 7". Minimum length of 3" which means, if they are in the right place LOL, the bumpstops will work before the spring binds. I have been waiting for Marlin to confirm the corner weights - but they seem unable to tell me.... (Reason given it varies from car to car - but, as I pointed out I was only after a ball park figure)

I will post my calculation up tonight to see what people think - Im am fairly confident its good - but not 100%

What we need is a proper engineer to check my figures (as opposed to me - an improper engineer....)
