My two 'Lifters' are 1877 (12 gauge) and 1879 vintage (10 gauge).

Let us know how they worked, Pat. I was very pleased with my results. The original springs had the ends twisted into a 'pad' of sorts. The lack of the 'pad' on the Grainger springs was of no consequence. Cheers!

Pat, did you try out the new springs from Grainger's? How did they work? Did you have to clip a lot of coils?

I am embarrassed to say that they have been received, but not used yet. I have taken the firing pins out sometime ago and know what the original springs look like with the expanded pad and like you, know that the new springs will work OK. You have motivated me to work on them. I will post my results. Thanks for the information.
