Seems the secret of replacement compression springs is knowing the spring "rate". Unfortunately, I cant determine the spring rate from Lancair and I cant measure the spring when its installed in my plane because of very limited access. Thats why I was hoping to find someone that hasnt installed the step yet to make some measurements for us. BUMMER Regards, Bill Hogarty
