    Now that I know the length, i did some quick calc's and think that stock spring rate from the OME catalog is low... time for an excel sheet so I can play with the numbers a bit.

    Does that pic give you everything you need? I should have some other angles if you need them, I have the rear spring pics also..

    Does the 13.25 go to the top edge/tip of the last coil?

    It's been awhile since I took the pics/measurements but I'm pretty sure I stood the spring up and dropped the tape measure to the floor and read it at the highest part of the spring. All of the measurements were done with a tape measure and eyes so no fancy measuring devices so +/- human error/lazy eye/beer in hand?
