Just an extra door spring, but I’m sure I’ll need it someday

Spring does not work with replacement box alone , had to fabricate a backing plate to hold spring in.

Worked Great!

Had a hookup door that flopped around and blew up whenever I drove over 25 mph. Put in the new spring and problem solved!

Great Fix

Spring works as intended and allows my hook up box lid to be sturdy and not in its current floppy state.

How do you hold hookup spring in place?

GoWesty

The spring is held in place by compression tension between the top edge of the hookup box door and the mating surface of the door frame.

How to instaled spring to door hook up

GoWesty

Remove the Outer Trim Frame

Remove the screws securing the outer trim frame to the hookup box housing. There are screws along all four sides.
Pull the trim frame straight away from the van body to separate it from the housing.
Set the trim frame aside.

Remove the Flat Spring

With the trim frame removed, the flat spring will be accessible — it sits in the gap between the housing and where the trim frame was seated.
Note the orientation of the spring before removing it.
Lift the flat spring out of its seat and set aside.

Remove the Hookup Door

With the trim frame and spring removed, the door is now accessible.
Open the door to expose the hinge pin or hinge tabs at the top.
Slide or lift the door up and off the hinge to separate it from the housing.
