The 52, f1 parking brake lever has a spring that holds tension on the ratcheting system, and that spring has broken. Does anyone have an idea where I could get a replacement?

Just had mine replaced by a friend on my 51 f1 ,a bit tricky but he managed to do it without taking the lever off ,I bought 2 (1spare)from Carpenter ,good luck, Jim.

I'd say that would be tricky and then some. I called Carpenter but didn't order at this time. I'll be in the U.S. shortly and will arrange to have it dropped shipped where I'm staying and save the $25.00 to have it shipped into Canada.
