Guest Grant Magrath Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 That's a good point Danny. Catalogues are an invaluable source of info when trying to ID parts or to see how things go. I've never actually bought anything from Ecklers, but I've sure given their catalogue a good thrashing!CheersGrant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLYER15015 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Airbrush,Get on your creeper and install from the bottom.The dogleg end goes in the fender hole and the hook goes in the gas door hole.The coil of the spring goes inboard.Put both ends in holes at once and "jiggle" into position.There IS a left and right hand spring.Once you put one on wrong, you'll know how to do it right. He. He.Be sure and let us know of your progress.Mike in Colorado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
