I think that will be a little small.
Take an axle with you to your local hardware store. I've gone to Ace and
found several that will fit. Just keep trying varying diameters until you
find the right one. The trick is finding one with the right force (one that
won't blow your model apart). I imagine Home Depot of Lowe's would also have
a decent selection to choose from.

| (...) Went to both Home Depot and Lowes the other day and it was a bust. All their springs are much to large. I'll have to try Ace. Thanks for the info guys. sun (23 years ago, 6-Nov-01, to lugnet.build)
