Mitchell 304 Reverse Dog Spring.

Post by Schrack »

All I can say is learned some new cuss words, could get in ok but dog would pop out when ran thru
When out of case.
That spring drove me wild!!!!!!
Once you put plate back on case, I think case holds dog down.
The spring rides in a groove on plate so one has to push it in place.
Took me a while to get everything in proper configuration, once It is installed plate on case the screw hole goes over dog and holds dog and spring in place.
Any one have a sure fire method to install the spring.
The old one was broken, end that installed on dog bent end was broken.
