WTB Steering Column Lock Control/ Key Release Housing Spring

HELP!

I've been rebuilding my steering column to convert the Scamp to floor shift.
Everything is done, but I need that spring! I made a couple attempts to create my own / make one work, but I need the factory spring.

Please let me know if you have one, thanks!

Man, if you find something,please let me know. I did the conversion on my swinger and no one mentions that spring at all. Now my collar just kind of flops around. I have had no luck sourcing a spring.

What year/car column ?

1971-1979 floor shift Mopars. Any column with that key release tab, F Bodies, and Trucks too.

"I Found It At Carlisle!"
Apparently that still can hold true. While walking the Carlisle swap area Friday afternoon scoping '71 and up floor shift steering columns, I ended up meeting a vendor who had a couple different samples in differing states of condition. I told the man I truly only needed the spring, and if it's in tact and working, I'm happy.
He said "I have exactly what you're looking for" and disappeared into his trailer. He returned holding THIS Gem!

The Dude asked $25, and I bought it!
Of course, here's my little score:

Problem solved!
