can some one tell me the measurements of 140# springs
I got some but have no markings .. I just want to be sure they are 140# before I put them on.
Full Version: how to measure springs?
140# = spring compressed 1" from uncompressed height
so unless you have a spring tester, you stack weights on the spring until it moves down 1" and add up the weight or 2" and divide by 2
you can also search here or google for a spring calculator that you count the number of coils and measure the thickness of the springs.
