Default TRW Spring Identification Help Please

I am trying to find what the spring rate for my TRW composite monospring.

Pictured below is the tag on the spring. Can anyone tell me what the spring rate is or point me in the right direction for someone who would know?

I spoke to VBP but they do not sell TRW and did not know.




Thanks,
John

My guess is that you have the 315# spring. There is supposed to be a hole punched through the part number to indicate which it is. Looks like the hole on yours is off center and right above the 101.

101 = 315#
103 = 340#
105 = 355#
