Greetings..Does anyone know where I can find a used adjuster spring for a 350? Are the springs on some other models the same? Mine is broke a couple of inches from top.
Thanks.....xeagerx

I'm sure I'll take some flak for this.... But If they are only broke in one spot I've have had excellent luck in welding them. Trick is to use good filler and control cooling. Preheat to dull red in local area weld with a good high nickle rod and immediately bury in dry sand.
Just throwing it out there. I haven't had one break in the same spot yet, and I've done maybe ten or twelve different springs.
Shouldn't need to say this, but take the tension off first if you're going to give it a shot.

I know where there is a dozen of them. Same part number from 440 to 350 crawler. It is located in Quebec , Canada. Shipping could be high a bit for this kind of item! Did you try with Lavoy?

I should have one, and can get new as well.
