Anyone know the spec of the rear springs in terms of length and poundage. I want to change them when the new shocks go on.

I'm interested in this as well as the rears on my 400 are too soft as it bottoms out with anything in the boot or two up. Free Length and diameter I can measure but not sure about the poundage.

I read somewhere that the poundage needs to be 75% on what's on the fronts. The new GAZ's I'm getting will have 720lbs front springs so it leaves me with trying to find out what the free length should be...
