The ID of the Fastenal spring is about 0.76". When you pull the assembly apart you can see the spring fits around a collar on the aluminum piece near the lower pin and around a sheet metal hat thing on the other end. The diameters of both the "hat" and the "collar" are around 0.83" so the spring should have a minimum ID of 0.84" to guarantee a good fit. You might be able to force the Fastenal spring to fit but probably not without tweaking it somehow. Sorry if my earlier post caused you to buy a useless spring, I jumped the gun a bit on that one...
