52-Mobil - Take a look through all the info and pictures in this previous thread. You can see all the details on the both clutch and brake pedal return springs for a '46, including links to some part number info if that's needed. wink

Yes - That thread was when I was trying to figure out how to install the brake and clutch springs. But then I found out I needed to install the engine side pan with the little "Z" bracket to hold the brake spring and extension wire that goes to the clevis pin on the brake master cylinder. Also, the same return spring is used for both.
