[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 374120, member: 434"] OK, so this might be the most circuitous datapoint so far, but maybe it will help. I just pulled out my original Wilbers spring and it has "59/59-110-165" stamped on it. Does the latter number represent n/m? If so I also remember when GP Suspension pulled it they said it measured 619 pounds. They replaced with a 800 pound spring and it has served me very well at 265# with riding gear, full rally gear, a cell, and a Pelican case, but it's also 30% more than I had originally had on the Wilbers. ...not sure it helps or not, but in terms of pounds differential from 265 to 220 I would guess you'd be wanting a 650 or so. I don't know if it's interchangable or not, but I've got my Wilbers 619/650 sitting here to borrow if you want. [/QUOTE]
