Kubota Kx41 Idler spring

[RonnieM]

Hi, I have a Kubota Kx41-3v that needs new track idlers and at least one idler spring. I am wondering where I can get the spring? I see plenty of idlers advertised but no springs. Also are the spring's expensive?
Thanks,
Ronnie.

I got parts for an older Kubota than that from the Kubota dealer
Ended up buying all components for the idler assembly all next day delivery and surprisingly cheap

Can you replace the spring on it's own or is it under to much tension?

The spring is under a bit of tension enough to keep it in place and short enough, you can get all Kubota parts normally singularly if when you get the new spring you remove the other idler and spring you will be able to see how much compression is needed, if I remember, you can undo the nuts to the end and there is still a little tension in the spring enough to push down with both hands.
