compressed spring OD'ers
« on: August 02, 2009, 12:14:04 AM »
Question for the tuners,...or the folks more mathematically inclined than I. Been wonderring how to measure the OD of a compressed main spring. Is there a mathmatical formula for this,..or would it be better to take a stick of all thread and compress a spring with washers and nuts to measure? tjk

Hi Thomas,a 18 to 24 inch length of threaded rod, run rod thru spring and compress with washers and nuts. This would be a safe way to get all the measurements you want..........Bill

they do tune up well...they are so bad that a little work
makes a big diffrents...my mod 75 got new guides and
a top hat/front guide witch it didnt have..the only trick was
the new rear guide and rear plug system so I could retaine
the saftey unit...
