The center support (On the opposite side the spring tensioned) pulled the
lag screw out of the 4X6 wood piece it was screwed into. It pivoted up, and
pretty much jammed the door. I called the guys who repaired the door last
spring (Replaced the spring) and they can't get to it for at least a week.
Looks like I am going to have to do the job myself. I have worked on garage
doors before but I don't relish the idea of working with that damn spring. I
have the tools, need some advise.
Thanks

Bill this is a simple yet tricky thing to repair and VERY DANGEROUS if
not careful. Take 2 --1/2"x18" steel bars. Insert bars into holes on
winding plug. Hold on to bar tight. Loosen set screws on winding plug
one at a time. If your cables wrap from the backside on the drum your
bars will have tension coming towards the floor. If your cables going
to your drum wrap from the front you will have tension going toward
the ceiling. Be careful any other question email me at
