Looks good

The vert should drop a touch more as it is slightly heavier.

Some approximate math:
500 lb/in springs, 190 lbs difference
= 190 / 500
or 0.38 inches more.

Results will vary depending and exact weight and springs.

Edit: divide my results by 4. Corner weight will be 1/4 of 190 (roughly) so only 48/500 or so.
