The sad think is that some Detroit Diesel Parts Dealer somewhere in the Country has the Spring you need buried in the old Parts some where.

Yeup.... Maybe I'll get lucky n find one.
Till then, I guess the temporary fix I just did will have to do.
I went to the hardware store and picked up a spring, cut it in half, located a anchor point and hooked her up.
Working fine, but I'm still looking for that OEM or better fix
Don't much like to rely on temporary fixes.
