Where do I get steering springs?
Ok,
Being the idiot that I am, I lost one of those stupid little steering springs. 
I also lost the spring on my Parts Char-G.
Where can I get them? How much?
Thanks for your help, because I am stupid...

I literally took 1 hour searching for the thing. I put a very powerful refridgerator magnet and 'swabbed' the floor....Nothing.
Plus, its at my dad's work, and I barely go there.

rcmod.com
I feel your pain. I lost one and spent an hour looking for it just to find it in a crevasse right near me. Don't buy a clone. Some of them have REALLY weak springs. The Thunderchargers from Big Lots are a prime example. Check out rcmod.com. To my knowledge, they are the only peope that sell steering springs. I ordered 3 steering springs and 1 pair of suspension springs from them and it cost $12 including shipping. I ordered on Saturday and they got them to me by Thursday. If you can keep your order under $10, the shipping is only $2. My 3 steering springs were all of slightly different strengths. But all were at least as strong as my stock MS spring. I hope this helps.

Where else do you get one?
Clones are more expensive.

true RCmod.com is the only place that sells them plus they have the really sturdy kind that you can only find in some other country or where ever it is. the suspension springs are the CH springs and you don't need to cut them to install them onto your car.
oh, and i like bacon too!
