Springs? Need help locating
I am in dire need of a E-brake spring. You know, the one that mounts to the front E-brake cable and the rear cross member. Does any know where to get one? I have looked in every catalog I have and no luck (LMC, JBG, NPD, ect.)
I don't want one off a junk vehicle that's been sitting, that's how mine broke, lol.
Also, does anyone know where to get a clutch return spring, I can't seem to find those either.
Thanks as always for you help.

For the brake cable, get two from the parts yard. That way there is half the strain on each spring. As for the clutch return spring, find one that will do the job. I'm pretty sure there is a somewhat simple formula to calculating the strength of a spring. I remember that topic from high school physics. Find a spring that is as strong or better.
