4lb spring makes my carpel tunnel flare, stock ones are 2lbs i find thats best, but i do upgrade them to nicer 2lb springs because they are like 1$

I got a 6lb spring and think I made a mistake lol. I thought it’s what I used to use. 3 games and my hand is fried

@@KeithKillingly 2lb is def better then 6 lol, i think like 2.5-3 pounds would be sweet spot, but 4 was for sure to much, and 2 is for sure to little

After trying out a 2lb spring I would love a 1.5lb spring right in the middle.

Just give the stock spring a bit of a stretch, works a treat.

Some people just buy either the LS-33 or the LS-55 spring and put it inside the JLF spring...

Did they have different tension springs in the very first Fighting game arcade cabinets?

@retroworksarcade323 2 жыл бұрын

I'm not exactly sure when these different tension springs came out for Sanwas but maybe they did.

@@retroworksarcade323 From what I understand, no - people learned to play on a JLF or an LS-32. The spring swapping came much later on when the home market for sticks took off.

The problem with adding different springs to the stock arcade1up sticks is good luck getting them out if you want to use the same springs in a new sanwa lol. I did this with my arcade1up sticks and honestly I didn't think it was that much better. Bought genuine Sanwa sticks instead and when I decided to take the 6lb springs back out of the stock sticks...it was impossible. I had no trouble putting the 6lb springs in the stock sticks but so much trouble taking them back out that I actually broke them in pieces to get the springs out. They're way more durable than what people think. Sanwa's are so much easier to deal with regardless. The little pin that holds the actuator on in Sanwa's are bigger and easier to remove/install than the Stock Arcade1up sticks. The stock Arcade1up pin's suck bad!

excelente video , la verdad si me falta un resorte mas fuerte y mas jugado teken 8 , la bolita es diminuta y para rematar el resorte pierde resistencia tan fácil que al estar haciendo movimientos que sueles hacer ya no se siente esa resistencia a como era nuevo , saludos desde México

Is 4lb spring more reliable than 2lb

@TexasHollowEarth 2 жыл бұрын

Yes. All springs become softer after getting broken-in. 4lb springs feel nice after breaking-in. 1 & 2 lbs get too loose for my liking. I prefer an American-style stick, feel.

@MichaelHarto Жыл бұрын

4 lbs is too strong, it's going to wear down your pivot and silicone grease fast. 1.5 - 2 lbs is better.

Bullshit, the pivot takes ages to.wear

You can get titanium pivot

@MichaelHarto 6 ай бұрын

@@dragborn926 it's even worse, the force of the spring will wear down the pivot housing. You want your pivot to be softer than the house, when friction happens the pivot material will wear out slowly.

The force of the spring reduces over time with use
