Good stuff guys.

I like the idea of switching the spring to convert it to a 60psi. That's a big help if I decide to go the 60psi route. I was thinking I had to buy an entire new pump.

I'll look into the cost of the spring and then make a decision on what I'm going to do.

The collective wisdom is that the 80psi isn't necessary, and would "probably" be fine, or "shouldn't" cause any problems. I'm not a big fan of doing things that have disclaimers such as "probably and "shouldn't," especially when there's no clear advantage, so I'm leaning towards changing that spring.

An added advantage going with the 60psi is I don't really need to spend money on a hardened driveshaft.

Thanks again guys!
