I too change the spring recently and this combined with my mechnaic noticing that the clutch was loose has made the clutch a joy to drive with
This would be the first mod I would do to any defender with a heavy clutch.

I just did this mod today. What a difference it makes! "sdt463" you must be one small strong person to do with pliers :o
Ended up wedging the peddle down, then using an big old Flathead screwdriver with a wedge cut out of the end to get enough leverage to put the spring in.
Rob maybe your spring was stronger than mine :D:D:DQuote:

And with all 3 in place it is a bugger to fit the spring:mad:.
But worth it knowing it is done right;).
