I was just refitting the dp to mid at the weekend (one of the bolts had fallen out!!!! not fitted by me, I add ) & was wondering about how tight the connection should be. Obviously tighter than it was before , but 'cos of the design of that bit, I presume it's meant to take some movement. And the amount of movement depends on how tightly the thing is done up.

Anyone got any hints?

 

i just tightend mine until the spring is almost coilbound, just 1 or 2 mm between coils

Hmm.
OK.
I'm missing the springs.
Can't be helping.
I think I'd better go and find some
