Hi Andrew,

The only grease points should be the rollers, one on the spring and the other, wider one in the frame. No grease (white lithium grease) on the tongue that attaches to the A pillar. Perhaps a little in the pivot point at the T40 hinge.

The rollers are different widths, so the tonge part will only travel on half of the wide roller.

The "carabiner" piece is the spring, mine is a bit rusty. I am still surprised that yours came apart! The spring is extremely hard to move, and the tongue even harder. Even dropping it on a cement floor wouldn't do anything except chip the floor.

If the pick&pull had some 850's, I would stop by and get you a passenger side door stop. There is only one 1993 850 and doesn't have any parts I want.

Are you sure you cannot bring it back to the dealer an ask for a new one? You are supposed to have a year.
