Sorry found one short pack and one 5 ton air pack in the parts trailer. Could not find the spring that came off the long pack so no spring from me.

thanks anyway for the effort....i have to look further for one….the 5 ton airpack, is it not the same as the 2 1/2 ton ?

No 5 ton bigger.

my kingdom for a spring................................

Gee, We should be able to just get a new spring.\
Post the nomenclature -Part number -and/ or NSN for the spring itself.

I need some kind of number string for research and finding in new spring
Give number of TM you working with.
I was told that a new car(1989) has 1100 springs in it, all different.

The TM number should be TM 9-2320-209-24P

Finally got home from work and I have a picture to share of what a BAD airpac looks like...

Here is a pic of mine. If you want it yea just pay shipping. Do you want just the cylinder as I could try and unbolt it or the whole thing?

johan77, PM me next Monday, that's the day before I go back to the Museum, i'll forget if you do it sooner, and I will look through a parts pile for a spring. I had to pull 4 air packs apart to find a good one the last time I overhauled one.

At least you have no mice in your brake system. The mice in the brakes is very common on RR equipment if the brakeman leaves the end angle cocks open when cutting out a car (especially in a rural area).
