Spring on clutch cable?

What spring have people used on the clutch cable with their pedal box? I can't find a suitable one. Has anyone got one, or can tell me where to get one?

Cheers

Hi Northy, haven't used a return spring on my luego. Made up a small bracket and bolted to floor just in front of the clutch pedal to limit pedal travel . Uses just the springs inside the clutch itself to pull pedal to rest position. Nice light clutch . I am using the luego supplied pedal assembly . Hope this helps Rusty

Not Luego floor pedals but

I found old car seats to be a useful source of springs of various sizes. Take a penknife and pliers to the scrapyard with you.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I'm with rusty nuts on this one. Just used the clutch's own spring action and knocked up a return stop which bolts to the floor.

I swiped the spring off the silicone sealant gun I got from B&Q. The one that holds the ratchet together. It was spare after sealing the ali panels
