Thank you osocanoso. I read something of the sort in the web. I believe you are right in this context. So what would TENDER be in Spanish. Resorte de apoyo adicional?
osocanoso Apr 22, 2014:
En este contexto, la palabra "tender" no quiere decir "blando." Proviene del latin "tendere" como atender. Es un resorte que "atiende" al resorte principal. Es el mismo sentido que "ténder" referiendo a un vagón del ferrocarril. (¨tender car¨en inglés)

Maybe this can help? and I agree with you that extra here is adicional just like extra lights. A tender spring is a type of spring for sure...
