The 2lb tension spring for Sanwa JLF replaces the existing spring found in the?Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick, or?Sanwa JLF-TPRG-8AYT-SK Silent Microswitch Joystick, adding 1.1lb more force than the original. This results in a stiffer joystick, which is favored amongst some players who don’t like the loose feel of the JLF. Using this spring, you no longer have to combine the original with a LS-32 to achieve the same level of tension.
