Oh and I would recommend sending your pair off for rebuild. 1) it may not be the springs, the linkage may be worn. 2) A used set may have same problems  3) NEW set may have same problems! I bought a new set (There are only two company's that remake hinges both Taiwan) and they do the same thing as my old set I have to push to get back corners down.

I'm sending my original ones in to have rebuilt

Is there any way to not see this huge picture of this girl on these posts. I like the women, don't get me wrong. I just get tired of seeing this. If not I will carry on and try to ignore. Can you block people on this new site?
