I need the springs that pull the floor pedals back to neutral. These are the springs on the inside of the front apron. I am not looking for the lower return springs that are next to the changer.

My A floor pedal is not pulling back to neutral and I suspect the spring is simply at the end of it's useful life. At a gig yesterday the vertical pull rod keep popping out of the notch connected to the do-hicky. It's awful hard to play commercial country without an A pedal.

I need at least one of these spings, but I'd buy as many as 8 depending on the price.

Paul, Just a thought....you might check to see that the cross shaft is not binding.maybe a lubing at the ends. It should move very freely. Dale

That's a good suggestion Dale. I'll pull the cross-shaft out and regrease it. This steel has a lot of miles on it so it't probably time. I'll also be installing new springs thanks to the generosity of Dave Diehl. Meanwhile my back-up steel is saving the day.
