[QUOTE="67westy, post: 381188, member: 14107"] Awesome, I love cookies :D Yup, 16" 150lb springs, not sure about the spring length or what difference it makes. I was hoping Graham might see this and confirm. I can only think it makes it easier to raise up as the spring isn't under so much pressure. I guess it would change the feel of the ride slightly as well. I think the measurement of 16" should be fine for most setups with the 3.5" dropped spindles as in theory the standing measurements should be similar (40+ years of wear and tear make a difference of course). I guess if your measurement is wildly different then a shorter combo may work better, I forgot to measure my standing measurement unfortunately. You're welcome to come and have a look, only thing is the van goes away for winter at the end of this month or early next month so not much time :) [/QUOTE]
