Clever people....Nm>lbs conv. + coilovers

[Gary G]

Can anyone work this out for me.... Need to convert 150nm (might be newtons not sure) to pounds per inch. To give some context, basically i rang a H&R dealer to try and find out the spring rates supplied with their coilovers.

Should be in the region of 150n or nm etc = probably 180-220lbs per inch?

my brain is scrambled thinking about this lol. Just want to try and make a comparison between the spring rate of my GAZ kit 225lbs front to the spring rate of the H&R kit 150newtons?? i dunno, any help appreciated lol. cheers

150 is about 110 iirc

 

[McBunny]

sorry 132 in per inch

 

[McBunny]

actually scrub that lol
Newton meters (N.m.) To pound inches (lb.f.in.) multiply by 8.851 so 1326
