would this work?
 

i was thinking of replacing the steering spring with a cut paper clip or staple...i would have to bend it closer and glue it on.
should i just try it?

i thought about this, because my zz has a slightly bent sterring spring...i had to bend it back in place...

The paperclip and staple are a bit 'thick' as a steering spring.
