My old ones I took off this year measured 60-66lb.s. Spec. is ~80. 112K and 135K. Worth doing in MHO.

If you would like me to check one of your original ones, after you replace them, I can do it at work here. We have a very accurate machine to do it. I was glad I got rid of mine, should have done it years ago.
