Force constant of rear suspension of car

[Huskies213]

Can anyone help with the formula set ups for this ?

A 110 kg box is loaded into the trunk of a car. If the height of the car's bumper decreases by 13 cm, what is the force constant of the rear suspension ?

Sounds like a Hooke's law problem, F = kx, k is the spring (force?) constant, and x is the displacement from the equilibrium position, how much the spring is compressed or stretched. Does this help?
