davemar 16 Posted May 6, 2020 In my attempts to spruce up my slam panel and the catch I've managed to lose the spring (probably buried in my garage somewhere). Does anyone know the dimensions of it so I can try and buy a replacement spring? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bacardincoke 42 1 Cars Posted May 6, 2020 It's a cheap gauge that never properly zeros itself, though it's as near as makes no difference Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davemar 16 Posted May 6, 2020 Many thanks for your precision there! Hopefully I can find something suitable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
farmer 328 1 Cars Posted May 7, 2020 Is it the knob part of the safety spring you are after ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davemar 16 Posted May 7, 2020 It's the spring that pulls the catch into place against the pull of the cable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
