I wouldn't mind getting in on this spring business (pending a cost estimate and verification that it actually fits and works properly).

Springs are cheap. I'll get in on this action.

Motion for them making a spring 'kit' that includes 3 or 4 springs of varying force. Say 25%, 50%, and 75% of OEM spring force.

I just took the spring out and left the assy in there, it makes no difference as far as lateral support goes since the pedal still moves sideways a bit. I want in on the softer spring please
