Title: Almost ready for reassembly to start! Post by: Fire708 on October 19, 2012, 12:55:55 pm Got my stack parts back from the platers. Took about a week to have them on my doorstep!
Before I get carried away does anyone know a source for the springs in the second pict? The toresion spring is from the rear of the stack and helps the can gate retract. The extension spring retracts the can pusher. Ive tried both funtronics and Sodajerk works. They have the springs for the front of the gate but not the rear. All my springs are in half diecent shape but i figure since its apart I may want to replace them. Title: Re: Almost ready for reassembly to start!

Title: Re: Almost ready for reassembly to start! Post by: collecture on October 19, 2012, 04:11:45 pm I believe I have some of the torsion springs you are looking for - not new, but in near NOS shape.
What is their diameter and how many are you looking for? Mine are about 1/2" diameter in the coil - see pic. Title: Re: Almost ready for reassembly to start! Post by: Fire708 on October 19, 2012, 09:40:20 pm Mine are 3/4". I have all seven (one per gate) but I figure if I can get new ones it's easier to change now than pull it all apart if one snaps. I do need three for my v63 as it has broken ones. If you don't have a use for them I wouldn't mind having them in my parts bin.
