Yeah. The spring would come out in two or three pieces.
The 700 in my '88 K1500 had one or two broken accumulator springs. I was sure there were two broken springs, but the returned carnage only had one spring in it; and I'm not sure all the pieces were included. This is what I got back of the accumulator springs. (There was lots more damage than just the broken spring(s)).

Mind you, the accumulator bores can be so damaged that the spring doesn't matter. There are aftermarket repair kits to fix various accumulator problems.
