Before you put that all back together, if you haven't already.. how long is that spring, and roughly what diameter? I may even have something like that laying around the shop* And would that ball be a 5/16" (or is it smaller??) Can possibly find an old bearing someplace in the junk pile that I could steal a ball from (if I knew the size!) ...I should maybe ask one more favor of you to pass those few measurments yet, if you could* ?

Even if you cant find what you are looking for in your shop, Redding has excellent customer service. I have called them a few times and they were more than helpful and sent me the parts that I needed.
