I can't get the shifter springs installed. I thought there was a thread on this but I could not find it. Could anyone share the procedure with me or tell me where I can locate the instructions?

I did the punch but I grabbed the other end with vice grips and forced the spring into the other holes location. Then moved the vice grips tilting sideways to start flattening the spring into place as I am putting pressure on the punch to drive it through the spring to the other holes location. It worked really well even with limited room.
