Hello, 

I need to replace my connector spring kit on the tailwheel.

Inch or mm, I can deal with both. Here under is an example of usefull data:

Could anyone tell me dimensions of their springs?

Of course, I could buy the Spruce kit, but I would prefer to avoid this cost.

If the kingpin angle is correct, it won't shimmy.

Hello,

Thank you, but this is not what I'm looking for. 

I am looking for the dimensions of the springs holding the tailwheel.

Avidventurous, since I live in Spain, I cannot open the link to the Homedepot link.

In fact, I was wondering if one of you wouldn't mind measuring his own tailwheel spring.

Length, diameter, and diameter of the wire.
