I'm looking to have a spring manufacturer make a clutch fork return spring for my '66 6 cyl. I recently posted that I was looking for an original spring. I got scammed by 1 person who replied. Frenchy was so kind to locate one for me. Sadly, that spring broke under tension. Last, no one reproduces the spring. I want something that looks stock and not a rigging of an over the counter spring.
I don't know any smaller companies who make springs. That being said, I've reached out to a larger spring manufacturer. Their quote was really high - $800. The good news is after setup, the cost for each additional spring made was only a couple of dollars. The plan is to either have the spring made out of the same original wire or stainless steel.
My question for the community - is there any interest/demand for this spring? I can have as many made as I want. I'd plan on selling the springs for $10. That seems like a reasonable price and would help pay down the cost for the one I need.
I'm open to any thoughts and ideas. If someone knows where I can find a spring or a more reasonable spring maker, I'd appreciate the information.
