Hi people,
Hope you all had a good Xmas
At last I have rebuilt the clutch
My problem now is, how do you get the small springs in on the front of the clutch basket, 4 in number
A couple flew, I was dead lucky and found them, but I am not holding my breath
Any tips really welcome please
Tried to upload photo but no luck

Just by looking at pictures of them, I'd try using one or two small cable ties to compress the middle coils of the spring and hold them compressed while you fit the spring. Then snip the ties and wiggle them out.

I'd thread the cable tie through them, do it up loosely, compress the spring in a vice and zip them up tight.
