1st Gen Chorus Rear Derailleur Servicing

[Rolling Thunder]

Hi gents and ladies,

I'm after a bit of guidance on putting an '88 Chorus Rear Derailleur back together.

All was going swimmingly until I got to the Cage Plate Rotating Spring. I just can't get this part of the rebuild right.

I end up with the cage stiff as hell despite everything grease, unless I have the pivot bolt screw very very loose.

Is there a YouTube tutorial anyone knows of, or an idiot's guide I can see/download? Perhaps there's someone here who can explain it to Mr Thicky?

Many thanks in advance!
