Extra brake return spring ..?

[HayRog]

Need a little help please.
Been using the search function with various word combinations, but, cannot find the photo's I know I've seen before, where one of you guys added an extra return spring to the brake pedal.
IIRC .. A washer was used, with a small hole drilled in it for the spring. Then the spring was stretched to a point on the exhaust ??

Any help would be really appreciated, thanks.

I remember the picture! :thumbup:
The spring was hooked to a washer (As you've described.), and the spring was brought forward, and hooked to where the exhaust pipes hooked to the header. :2thumbs:
(And I can't find my copy of the dang picture! pps

From Lowes hardware store. did not attach it to the exhaust, stay on the same side as the brake to avoid a whistling effect.

Big "thank you" to you all
I've gleaned a host of information from this forum -- love it.

And Bob, what did you type into the search function to recover the link ?

I just followed his excellent lead...
I looked up SpongeBob2015, and found the list of threads that he had started, and looked it up; based upon the dates and thread title.
