Its not something one does every day , but I wished that I would have fit the spring guide to the frame before I started back together , I actually removed and replaced the original spring in order to get a count on the coils accurately . Then I got a new spring and replaced the old one (Saving all the original parts of course)

What I encountered was the guide not wanting to turn to the correct alignment and was binding as it was square and the frame hole square also. Maybe just a bit of relief on the frame and or the guide to allow it to turn into position more easily .

Or perhaps starting into the frame with the hook facing forward more precisely . That seemed to be difficult with all the spring pressure working against things . I agree if I go back into another , just a wee bit of careful fitting may be in order before going together with the spring in place .
