The dimension of the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs - 2 Piece - Front Axle # SSF-170-40-2 that you are seeking is the 8-1/2 inches from bracket to bracket. Anything larger than that will create separation which is ideal for steering to keep your wheels on the ground when needed but anything shorter than that will cause compression and will give stability. You can see both of these actions in the attached video.
