How difficult would it be to change the springs? My index finger needs about 18lbs, middle finger about 25, ring finger about 15 and little about 9lbs

The finger pads don't really come apart. I would say there is a good chance you would damage this item in the process of trying to modify it.

Upon examination of the exerciser I have come to the conclusion that it would be difficult or impossible to replace the springs.

These springs are pretty tight. At first youll see theyre kind of high around 5" or so.... There is a lot of discussion of how to "seat" the springs. I left the shackle bolts loose and added my motorcycle carrier to the back of the truck and drove around a full week with the springs loaded. They sunk in a bit. I then drove another week and articulated the springs out on some trails...came home and torqued shackles as it sits and im almost a tad over 3.5".... Not for nothing but those RC front springs probably sagged out by now so u might have a little rake!

Please do not stretch the springs. They are factory set to a high tolerance. you will cause the device to work incorrectly and likely fail the annual inspection.

I would contact Hellwig to buy the right springs. That is what I did before ordering. 1-800-435-5944

Trust me I understand your question o k my door had two about the same size. Standard size and weight door that is I bought these springs one for the left & right I ended up only needing one because of size and the thickness of the new spring If memory serves I think I wound the one about 26 times I don't have a problem, I left the other up there just incase the first one breaks but so far all fine, if wanted the length it's about twice the size

Not easily. You have to reverse the process of winding the spring - takes a minute, two hands and two screw rods...

I would suggest a small set that you are personally comfortable with as the best solution allowing you to switch between them as desired. We have a set of 8 ranging inch from 1 to 10 lbs that works very well.

make sure you use silicone spray on both ends of the springs! Also, make sure kids are heavy/strong enough!

No, they are not adjustable. They are 10 rings: 2 wide rings for the thumbs, 6 less-wide rings for the middle fingers, and 2 even-less-wide rings for the little fingers. When I bought them, I, too, worried that they would be too small. But if anything, they are rather loose on my fingers. My feminine fingers are probably average in size, so unless you have exceptionally large fingers, I doubt the rings would be too small.

I don't know if you can purchase replacement springs from Pilates, but if not, you might check other sources. I just Googled "buy springs" and got 161 million hits. Surely you could find something that would do the job.

Cut the spring shorter until it fits right. Works awesome for me now. Plus I complained to the company because I had to modify it to fit. They refunded me double what I paid. I suggest you do the same since these junk chinese companies think they can sell crap to the US and get away with it.

The Oval 8's slide onto your finger with the top and bottom of the 8 above and below a knuckle. I'm afraid you would have to have a very long toe for them to work.

Agreed. Very easy to change, and the locking levers are secure. Just be sure to check the screws that mount the lever assemblies to the legs. One of mine came loose while I was making an adjustment and the leg section fell out. Not a big deal, fixed with the turn of the screwdriver.

Susan, I would get the smaller size if you really need it to help your finger not to lock. If you have serious issues with this, check out silverringsplint.com kjb

You can order heavier springs for these forks but the springs that come stock are light; you will be near the full capability at 81kg . Nonetheless, I would opt for a fork that uses an air column because you will have more range to tune the fork; the cost will be worth it.

I bought mine for trigger fingers and just I went by my ring size on that finger. If I wear a size 6 ring on that finger I bought a size 6 Oval 8 Splint.I hope this helps. Sandy

Yes. They recommend the 6lb during pin spring for the 20 & 21. my kit came with a 4 and 6. I left mine stock, so it's not the lightest it can be, but damn good. http://www.ghostinc.com/product/GHO_RIK/Rocket-Trigger-Installation-Kit-for-Glocks-GEN-1-4.html If you're mechanically inclined and have a bit patience, you can do it yourself. TAKE your TIME. File slowly and test, over and over, to get it right. Or take it to your gunsmith. I have this in a G20 and a G35.
