Somewhere on this forum there’s a post about springs from Northwest Short Line that will work. Sorry I can’t find it but someone will. I saw it yesterday.

Several styles of die-cast sprung trucks have been made over the years. You need to be a bit more specific.

The trucks are on a 1993 freight car. Does that help.

Billy, the post is on the S scale forum under MTH/Lionel truck spring replacement. Even though it’s on this forum it may also apply for OGauge. It’s worth a check.

Now that the you've identified the truck as being from 1993, the Lionel part number for the spring is 600-9550-058 or 9550-58 in the old shorthand.

The details can be found in this thread:
