Deadmetal Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Shove the adjusters back in if you have them. Its an easy, quick job.If not I know a few people on here have used cable ties to secure the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherReeve Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Cable tie the spring in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
