Expert Reply:

There is not a fixed spacing for the hangers in kit # APT6SE-36 since this depends on the length of the particular springs used. The hangers need to be close enough together that the curved ends of the slipper springs properly engage with the bolt or column they rest on.

Please refer to the linked image, dimension B, to see this spring dimension. Measure this on your springs to get the approximate distance from the center of the spring eye to the highest point of slipper end.
