Can I turn a victor 1.5 single longspring into a double longspring by adding a replacement spring on the other side?, will victor 1.5 jaws and base plates fit these traps?

It’s all about the jaws being 2nd spring ready to take the second spring most are not.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

some of the jaws are oblong and some are not. It doesnt matter though. You can put a spring on the oblong side and make it a double long spring and it functions fines. It just doesnt look right when not set but that doesnt matter. It should bed fine and they work great in the water.
