Normally these coaster hubs are all pretty self explanatory but stripped apart a Morrow to clean and regrease, as I do on all my bike hubs, before reading about the difficulties involved in adjusting one when assembling again.

Thus, adjusting the spring section (114, 116, 117, 120) of the Morrow has me kind of baffled. I tried a few different times but 116 kept extending too far and popping off of the axle shaft. I ultimately got it to work correctly by threading the two together as close as they allowed, which still left some room for the spring to compress (but not much). It feels fine running it in my hands but I was just wondering if there is any better way to go about this?

Any help would be lovely.
