Wayne Dalton Torquemaster Spring - PLUS Upgrade Spring and Parts / 8 ft high/Between 180-189lbs - Double spring set

The Wayne Dalton Torquemaster Spring Upgrade Kit is designed to replace the original springs on 8 ft high garage doors weighing between 180-189 lbs. This heavy-duty, 10,000-cycle life replacement spring kit includes all the necessary components to convert your existing Torquemaster TMS system to the newer "PLUS" style springs.

The kit contains the following key elements: - Correct size and style TM3 replacement spring(s) to match your door's weight - Compatible winding assembly and cable drum kits - Easy-to-follow DIY installation instructions

To ensure you order the right kit, you'll need to know the height and weight of your garage door. The door height can be measured directly or found on the label of the metal spring tube. For doors 6'6" to 7'5" in height, select the 7 ft kit; for doors 7'6" to 8'2", choose the 8 ft kit.

The most important factor is the balance weight of your garage door. Springs are rated for specific weight ranges, so this detail is crucial to get the right replacement. The door weight is typically listed on a label on the metal tube, but if it's not there, you can weigh the door yourself using a bathroom scale. Make sure to fully release all spring tension and slack the cables on both sides to get an accurate reading.

Once you have the door weight, select the spring kit within the corresponding weight range. Using a spring rated for a higher or lower weight than your actual door may result in the kit not functioning properly.

This Torquemaster PLUS upgrade kit provides several benefits over the original system. The heavy-duty, high-cycle springs offer improved durability and reliability, with a 10,000-cycle life rating. The newer PLUS style also features a more streamlined design and easier installation process compared to the older TM1 springs.

By upgrading to the Torquemaster PLUS system, you can extend the lifespan of your 8 ft garage door and enjoy smoother, safer operation. The comprehensive kit includes everything needed for a DIY conversion, making it a cost-effective solution to enhance the performance of your Wayne Dalton garage door.
