I did this recently and used a long zip tie through one hole, through the spring, out the other end, and then connected to itself. As I tightened the zip tie, I was able to easily push the spring into place.
Then, I pushed a small screwdriver through to hold the spring, cut and removed the zip tie, then carefully pushed the screwdriver out with the pin. This worked very well for me and didn't involve sacrificing any tools. |
