    Dobinson Flexi coil ?

    Hi all ,
    does anyone have any idea what the spring rate is for the dobinsons flexi coil C51-099 Is ?
    all they said was that it was a 3" lift with no load and that its a soft Flexi coil .

    kings at least gave me a spring rate and free length 190-400 lb/in and 485mm free length
    thanks for any help
