Rudder return springs.
Looking for a set of Rudder return Springs. They are not the same length left and right. Also looking for the clips that hold them to the center unit in front of the steering T.

Re: Rudder return springs.
That's a pretty big bullet to swallow. The springs are about 160 for one and 90 for the other. Ouch. But thank you for the information. I've got a line on a pair.

Those extra long loops are very expensive to make...

Re: Rudder return springs.
I found some. DUNAIREPARTS on ebay it's just about the best seller on eBay for 140 parts. He is honest, great communication, and all around great guy. Has helped me immensely with his knowledge and his ability to come up with parts.
