    picture helped out alot. I see how the spring lays up against that post. and it looks to me like the small hook on the spring that touches the backside of the metal post does not hook to the post it just lays beside the post. big help thanks again Jeff

    Hello racerone. Jeff again. The long end of the spring is on the underside of the red arm. do you think i can get some needle nose pliers and just grab it and extend it to the metal arm? Will that longer piece be on the outside of the post or attach on the inside of the post. Thanks Jeff
