Standard vs hard 372xp AV springs???

[pro94lt]

I was looking for a new decal for my 365xt and while looking through the ipl I seen 2 different springs, standard and hard? I knew the stihls had different rubbers but did not on the husqvarnas... I'm assuming my 3 372s have the standard? has anyone compared the 2? He hard might be better for the guys who run longer bars...

20 bucks for a spring??

Where is best place to get these, 20 bucks for a spring, seems, well, a bit stiff!!

 

[Duce]

To me, they seem not to bend and stretch out as easy. Price is stiff for sure.

Also- keep in mind- the aftermarket springs/mounts for the 365/371/372 are based on the softer versions usually. The OEM mounts are expensive but they do last a lot longer.

What color are the the end caps on the hard/soft springs?

I know, I know this is an old thread but the last question was never answered and that is a question I have. I'd like to know what setup I have on several 372 handles I have. This is what I've seen for end cap colors and spring wire diameters:
Front handle spring:
Black - ~3.4mm
Blue - ~3.4mm
White - ~3.6mm
Rear handle spring:
Blue - ?
Gray - 3.2mm
White - ?
Cylinder spring:
Black - 3.2mm
Gray - 3.1mm

What I don't know is if these are OEM or not. I assume that the thicker wire diameter indicates the spring is the 'hard' type.

Does anyone know for certain what the end cap colors indicate?

Thanks
