[Closed] Anyone changed the spring on a Recon Silver fork?

I'd like to get a soft spring for my partner's Recon Silvers. TF Tunded have '06-'09 Recon springs on their site for £22. When I spoke to one of their people on the phone I was told the Recon Silvers were a 2011 model and used a different and more expensive spring setup (£50ish) where the spring shaft bolted through the lowers (effectively a U-Turn spring without the U-Turn dial).

When I emailed back just to clarify what I'd need and whether they could order one up for me I got a reply to say that all fixed travel Recons use the same springs and the ones on the site will work. So now I'm not sure what I need. The obvious solution I suppose is to open up the forks and see what's in there but I wondered whether anyone had changed a Recon Silver spring. The forks are OEM Recon Silver TK 100mm fork (from On-One).

That'll be a no then?

There seems to be nothing on the SRAM technical site relating to anything newer than '06 Recons and no email to get in touch.
