Torsion Spring Replacement
All,
I've never replaced a garage door torsion spring and one of my two is broken. 26" 1.75 ID .2187 Diameter RH spring is broke. I probably should replace both at the same time, correct? Reading through a couple of "how to" websites the replacement doesn't seem all that difficult - just dangerous in a couple of instances and time consuming. For those of you who have accomplished this yourself or have had a pro do it, what would you recommend? I'm pretty handy (worked framing, plumbing, electrical [no garage door experience] finish carpentry etc for 7 summers) but I'm not sure that there are any additional tips/tricks (words of wisdom - I've seen the posts before!) that you could provide? Thanks, Djay |
