So I went down to my local hardware store & they had a nice selection of springs for screen /storm doors used on houses. Took the MAS low tension ones with me & picked out a pair a bit softer & same length as the MAS ones & they are working nicely. 2005 Dakota 4X4 3.7 2004 Rumble Bee 5.7 1978 Diplomat 318 1969 Satellite 318 "bracket racer" 1966 Barracuda (in progress ) 1964 Dodge 330 (future race project) 1962 Belvedere (HUM????)
