Geez, I'm sorry you're having such a rough time. It just seems like second nature when I thread them on myself.

Are you starting to thread it on above the existing spring. In other words, did you kind of pull the existing spring down a little to expose the plunger rod so you could start threading the new spring ? Yes, I am trying above, which is sort of my problem. And yes, I pulled the spring down. My problem is starting the Jolt spring around the post, since the spring is so tense and barely allows me to stretch it the way I want. I'm trying to get it, and I'm sure I'll eventually (hopefully) figure it out
