Not sure what you're talking about by spring post, but I've got two 360's in pieces in a box at home. I'd imagine I have what you need.

About the only spring post I can think of are the metal posts on the handle that are used to mount the throttle trigger and associated lockout mechanism??? If its these, you can probably cut a nail or get some 1/8" metal rod and just make it. There's also a spring inside the transformer that contacts the spark plug head ???

That's what I thought too? I can tell you the transformers themselves are pricey!

what i need

inside the spring cover is a post that transfers the spring tension to the rope pulley. it is about as big a a raisin. the post is a very important part in the recoil system.

Do you mean this:

This is part number 65102. I searched Calvin's online store and it didn't match, but it does on Kyle's, so here's at least one source for it.
