I've been looking into that, and there appear to be two models, one with a screw holding the head on the rod, and another using a pin that's press fitted.



Based on the articles I've read, it might be best to leave it alone. As you can see from the picture, it can be removed. But apparently the rod is quite soft, and easy to bugger. I encountered the same kind of thing on a BoomCo HALO.

You could always tandem thread an additional spring on from the side while you have it open. That would be a nice improvement ;-)
