130 springs in a 110

[bambusa]

Do the rear 130 springs fit straight into a 110?
I need the double springs to cope with a heavy canopy I want to put on a tray top 110.
If not...what are some alternatives that people have used?

The canopy weights between 6 and 700kg (we think) and the springs on the 110 tend to sag a little with it in place.

Cheers :)

polyairs might be better if you plan to take canopy on & off (not as harsh unladen), if permanently on heavier springs might be the go

It will be permanently attached so in that case springs would be better?
Which leads back to - do the 130 dual rear springs fit into a 110?
Thanks :)

Should do, you'll need the spring mounts for the helper springs.

If you are carrying a permanent fixed load, why not a single set of heavy springs wound up to match the load?

Helper springs are there so that unloaded ride quality is not affected by heavier springs.
