    looks like a standard spring to me. Lots of different manufacturers but really they all have the same dimensions usually.

      The springs rarely ever "wear out".

        Actually if always set to the tightest position , after a while the spring does stretch and won't work as well unless tight. They are easily replaceable, and as stated most are all the same size. Only issue might be the threaded rod. Some pedals had smaller rods, newer ones are slightly bigger. But you can always use the rod and swap the actual spring.

          Some one has worked on the spring with a pair of Pliers and it is about to break, This seems to be a Little different spring its not just a one piece spring, it seems the ends are not attached to the coil part of the spring but run thru the center some kinda way any Old Old school Pearl guys out there that Know what Im talkin bout ? the standard Springs that are out there just dont have the same feel and feel is why I bought this in the first place

              That's a P900 pedal. Unfortunately the springs are not available anymore. However you could try the SP31 spring off the P955 circa 1995.
              Would it be possible to take the spring off the pedal and measure the length?
              We do have the SP31 in stock.

                          Boy that photo brings back memories! I had that pedal too! It was a great pedal. I played the heck out of it. I especially liked the toe stop and that I could shorten the strap to suit my playing style. I almost wish I had that pedal back! I replaced it with an Iron Cobra which I like a lot too.
