Posts: 23	Side stand 04/29/17 at 20:22:26 Hay all the springs to my side stand came a part when i went to put it down at work today, can someone post a pic of how they are meant to be assembled as I'm not shore if I found all the parts (using a shoelace to hold stand up isn't the best setup but it got me home)

You can bend the spring left/right and get the washers inserted into a spring.

You can buy...or make a spring puller to help you get them on.
