I had my 86 930 pedal cluster apart for new bushings and powder coat, this is an 86 spring if it looks like yours it most likely will work?

Hope this helps

Yes, looks like it, yours must have been a late 86 build as that is the 87 up spring.
would u like to part with it?
gotta ask

I'll bite. What's the quarters trick?

[Tt surgeon]

Stick quarters or washers in Btwn the coils to spread them out. You need about another 1/8" to pop it over the pegs, that makes it easier. Just pluck them out w a needle nosed pliers when done. I did a search here on the board and found that trick.

Clever!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the hint.

[Tt surgeon]

I wish I would have come up with it, I found it here searching old threads.

I simply drilled and tapped the ferrule that is crimped to the spring. I think I needed a LH tap though. The turnbuckle still works.

[Tt surgeon]

interesting, so you drilled and tapped as opposed to welding it back?
I'm gonna give that a try, like to be all original. You don't remember the tap size by chance do you?
