Thanks for the info. Great baseline information. When I looked up the springs in the parts catalog, they show three different springs. It looks like there is a standard, an option and a towing spring! I didn't know the there was a trailer hitch for the Berlina.
I wonder how the loaded weights were chosen. It appears that the loaded length would be the length of the spring as installed and the load would be the geometric load. I recall a thread stating that the mechanical leverage at the spring is 3 times the actual weight at the individual wheel (for the fronts).
Does anyone know why the left front spring would be longer than the right? Isn't the spring pan different left to right as well? What's the point? More ground clearance on one side?
I will see if I can find someone local with a spring dyno so that I can measure all of the various springs I have.
