By lift cap I believe you are referring to the weight capacity, and the maximum weight your tailgate can be for the Rack'em Double Barrel Utility Trailer Tailgate Lift Assist # RA-27C is 200 lbs.
In regards to the extended spring length, there isn't a recorded length of the spring when all the way extended, because the parameters of the gate are such that it will only work with top rails that are between 10 and 15 inches above the trailer deck. Also, the mounting bracket has to be installed on the tailgate at 44 inches above the trailer deck, so those are the specs needed to know if this will work for your trailer.
I have added links below to both the instructions and a video install for you to take a look at of the Rack'em Double Barrel Utility Trailer Tailgate Lift Assist # RA-27C.
