    My 1973 style pedal return spring on the back side of the pedal has rusted and broken. Is there a alternative spring that can be used back there to have the pedal pad spring back?

    Nah. None there for the pedal. Need the little bitty one behing the pedal at the pivot.

    It's a generic part. All Jeeps '74-80 (and likely beyond) use the same part. PN 3193369.

    Remarkably, it's available from Crown: https://www.amazon.com/Crown-Automotive-J3193369-Accelerator-Return/dp/B00BA7AXK4

    You could have looked this up if you owned the parts book. Cheap on CD-ROM. 1974 JEEP CJ5 5.0L 304cid V8 Part Guide | RockAuto
    Seems this is paper - it has been available for less on CD-ROM. The '74 CJ is almost identical to '73. Badges, smog.

    Probably also in here: https://oljeep.com/parts_man/62-73_FSJ_PartsCatalog_w_bm.pdf (big file!)
