    I had to remove the rear window regulator to work on the electric motor and get a new key cut for the lock. It came out easily but now I have the regulator on the bench and can't figure out how to "clock" the coiled assist spring back on the arm. Am I missing something obvious? I have the 1964 Ford shop manual and it explains how to remove the spring by placing it in a vise, but it says nothing about putting it back together. It would seem the two arms would have to be "timed" with each other, like a cam to a crankshaft, but I don't see any obvious markings to do this. Any advice or suggestions? Anyone have a 1964 tailgate window regulator out that could send some pictures or count the teeth where to two arms meet?
