I have had the spring on my kr for over 700 hours. It works well. Tension MUST be firm. The only drawback is you need a steering bar to push the plane backwards. I put a bracket on each side of the nose wheel pant and made a steering rod to fit. Last week I removed the spring to try it, makes pushing easy but the friction pressure has to be high on the pivot Phil Australia
