I'm certainly no expert when it comes to Mullen return springs, but lengthening the springs will change a lot more than the spring length. You would probably be better off using longer screws instead of changing the springs.

I don't think those springs with nuts in them are commercially available. I believe they're fabricated.
Michael Yahl can fix you up...or Jim Palenscar. Both can fabricate the assembly at the length you need.
by the way, they're called "adjustable lower return springs".
