Spring FAQ: Can you make the springs with a higher weight rating?
No, they cannot be made any stiffer-if we used a heavier gauge wire the coils would hit each other as the spring compressed, and severely limit the travel causing it to bottom out faster. Some guys have threaded to original springs inside of the new ones, or experimented with pneumatic “test” balls used for plumbing to achieve a heavier rating, some even used pool noodles. There are a few threads on the GTT forum detailing this if you search a bit.

KBOGH/BoltOnHooks LLC is proud to introduce the JD 1-Series Pedal Extension for the 1023e / 1025r / 1026r, and the Gen2 2025R models. Now you can find the differential lock pedal anytime, even while wearing your biggest snow boots in the dead of winter, or your mud-packed boots in the summer. This unique design allows the pedal to go all the way to the floor allowing for full differential lock engagement. All you need is two 7/16″ or small adjustable wrenches for a quick and simple installation.
