Joe, you made my day! I have an electrified 66 Redeye that I picked up a year or so ago that I have been terrified to take apart the tension mechanism. It's a bit rusty and needs to be cleaned desperately but I have been afraid to touch it. The link in your message above is EXACTLY what I need! Woohoo! Will be printing this out later this AM. And once I get the taxes under control, I'll have some time to play with it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
