So these need total rebuilds... What parts/#'s to do so? Done this a number of times with various gens, just haven't noted the details.

TIA!

Spring set. (item "J" on diagram)

If your spring carriers are the original diecast, that
version is prone to hairline cracks. Replace with the nylon
carrier/spring assembly. It's not much more than the springs
alone.

You'll probably want cables and tape at this point too.

Yes, manual is for that whole series of round-top Ergo 9/10,
1998 through 2009.

The early pointy 8 Ergo are quite similar inside but the new
QS, Escape & UltraShift types are completely different inside.
