Tools Used
Screwdriver, Pliers, t25 torx, block of wood
Parts Used
installed a block of wood to hold the back frame out enough to use the torx tool, to get at the screws lifted off the housing disassembled the spring and rope spool, needed to repair the spring / bend it flat to rewind it and reinstalled. put the bushing into the housing and found that it was loose, needed to flare the bushing so it wont fall out, i believe there is a tool to crush it so it will flare on the inside of the housing. reassembly and rope works fine. now the rope broke. needs a new housing due to the rope hole rubbed /cut into from bad oem bushing. now need to buy the whole housing
