Have to do something about my seat and a new cushy seat ain't cheap so gonna try and make the one I have more comfy. The seat I have now sits (no pun intended) on a 'C' spring which doesn't have much spring to it so I'm contemplating cutting the front part of that mount (spring that doesn't) and hinging it in the front with small springs in the back. The springs I have are 2 1/8" free and 150 lbs at 1 1/4" and 220 lbs at 1". Are these too heavy? There will be two springs of the same rating at the back of the seat, one on each side. I bought this GT back in 88 or so because the 'old' guy that had it couldn't take the beating and now I'm the old guy
