mack_turtle Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I bought a socket for less than $10 for this purpose and ground it flat. didn't have any special tools to do this so I used a drill and a patch of smooth cement in my garage. works great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakey Start Posted November 6, 2020 Author Share Posted November 6, 2020 Panic over, I found that 1-1/4” socket is/was pretty close to 32mm, so I took the advice and belt sanded it down. Not elegant but the spring has been changed! If anyone needs it, lemme know! BTW, that Push AC3 conversion kit is pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
