If you have a setup that might get reasonable results, I'll be happy to mail you the new spring that Lancair sent me. (need address). BTW, Lee Spring sent me specs on 2 replacement springs; one with a rate of 16.00 lb/in and one with a rate of 17.50 lb/in. Unfortunately, they tag on a $ 20 additional shipping charge for any order less than 10 pieces. BUMMER Regards, Bill Hogarty
