Default Garage torsion spring

One of the springs is unwound but not broken. Looks like a the set screws
came loose. I Googled for info & only found lots of stuff on how to

replace
the springs. Can I simply wind this spring back up? Should I unwind the
other first to make sure both springs are equal?

Thanks!



Ok, ok. Looks like it's unanimous. I saw the info at
http://www.truetex.com/garage.htm and being quite mechanically inclined I
thought I might give it a go. I called around - looks like it's cost me
$200 - 300. Strange though how the spring did not break, it just popped off
the holder at the middle of the rod...
