| Hey I had some major bolt assembly issues last night and removed the spring from the extractor. It says not to remove the spring obviously. I notce one side of the spring is slightly larger then the other. Any idea which side of the spring sits in the extractor and which end goes up? |

Big end goes in the dished portion of the extractor. Pain to put in sometimes. I usually twist is slightly in the direction that would decrease the sping diameter while pushing it in.
