| Kyrilian, nice to see you again at Sun n fun. I wanted to tell you about a related issue I noticed in my Legacy. I thought at times the rudder (on the ground) was really stiff, at times I could not turn but sometimes it was easy to turn. I found out later the nose strut was slightly low and locked into the center position with weight on wheels. Tonight, after your note, I looked at the cables and they get slack if I move them with the peddles. That doesn't seem right and removing springs might make that condition worse. I should go back into the archives to see for myself. good luck.

As I put my adjustable pedals together I wonder if the included springs may also contribute to excess stiffness. They seem stiffer than necessary.
Has anyone come up with an alternative to the included springs? I think someone mentioned removing the springs altogether, but I'm concerned that this will allow them to flop aft, especially on the copilot side. Any ideas? Anyone find a source for weaker springs?
Thanks,
