    you'll probably need 7" and helpers then.

        60n is the spring rate
        60n/mm ~ 342lbin

        Helper springs take up the slack so you can run a shorter spring and it does not unseat when the suspension is unloaded: the second skinny little springs at the top. when the suspension is loaded they bind and the main spring does it business.
