spring length

Got mine from Protech who were most helpful and very reasonably priced.
If you measure the open length of the shocker (centre of eye to eye) they will give you the correct length of spring. I think it's 5in shorter than shocker ( not 6in as were on my rears).
My poundage is similar to previous reply and now seems more comfortable whilst managing to cope on the track. Standard springs would probably be better for the track.
