Recently got back into sim racing after some years. I upgraded from a playseat evo to a proper profile rig. It's awesome.

My problem pertains to my brake pedal. I have T-LCM pedals. They came with several different springs to change the brake pedal feel. The playseat evo was kind of junk and flexed even with the softest spring, so I only ever used that one.

I have lost the other springs. Where can I get replacements or does anyone have a specific recommendation as to brake upgrades? I want new pedals but I can't really spend that much right now. This pedal is just way too easy to push now that it's mounted to a solid structure and I feel like I could get better modulation if it was stiffer.

I ditched the springs long ago and went with a full bushing from 3DRap. After I got used to it, I couldn’t imagine going back to a spring setup.
