Use Static Structural to find the static equilibrium of a system of springs and rigid bodies. It will be easier to help if you insert an image into your reply.
You need a minimum of 6 springs connected to ground so that all 6 Degrees of Freedom (DOF) of the structure has a non-zero stiffness in each DOF. Also, there can be no mechanism in the structure.
