where can i get a new one?

i need a new pin for my zip zaps steering system. when i oppened up the steering compartment, i noticed this uhh..spring was bent and it was causing the unequal steering i was recieving because it wasn't aplaying tension when it turned left, and alot of tension to the right, resulting in sharp lefts and wide rights. i've cleaned out the whole inside and everything is put together correctly, i am sure this is my problem. can any point my in the direction of a seller of this peice below?

sry ppl i cant get my image to work, i hope u know what i am talking about, it's a little coil with two stands coming out attcahing to steering trim

It's the small spring used to center the steering. I'm not sure where you could get one by itself. I would try to bend it back if possible.

ahh man. i did try to bend it back, it's hard to get it straight, but the side that had been bent isn't staying in place, it's weakened and not providing the tension it should to pull the wheels back so the magnet just rips to the left side and stays there resulting in left donuts. and the right is still strong to i've been makin the widest right turns.

does anyone have a wrecked zz that they can donate the spring from?

edit: nvm mind ppl i fixed it, it works perfect now, the wierdest thing tho, it didn't even half to do with the pin.
