CK30 HST lazy pedal return

I know that the new tractor had a stiffer return spring than the earlier ones but I think Bobcat was going to make another return spring that was stiffer yet.

I have the newer dampner on mine. It seemed to work great when I put it on, but that was in the summer and probably didn't get it out of low range much for the work I was doing. Bobcat was trying some stronger springs and story I heard is one they had was so quick to return it would slide you off the seat if not buckled in. Problem is, the stronger the spring the pedal effort it takes and could cause foot/ankle fatique if using for long hours at a time.

Would be nice if there was a variable rate damper with an adjustable rate.
