I can get you the size of the GQ springs as I have a set in front of the garage but you'll have to wait till tomorrow arvo when I bring a tape home from work.

Rear left 455mm from a 200k old set I changed out, spring rate I believe to be near but probably not above the 210lb mark. Interested to read the other people's measurements.
