hi /n/ need some mechanical help.
the patient is a 98 trek 6000 hardtail mtb. has a shimano stx rc groupset. problem is with the rear derailleur
the spring marked with an arrow at right of the pic gets loose. happened first like one year ago. i just hooked it up to the "pivot" marked with the other arrow (and in a circle)at the left of the pic. worked fine till yesterday, when it happened again, so i did the same thing. went for a test ride but it got out in less than 5 minutes. my questions:
-is the thing i marked on the left the correct place where the spring should be hooked?
-maybe i just hooked it poorly and thats why it got out? or maybe the thing is weared out and i need to try to hook it to another place or modify something? (ill post an idea i have on next post).
its basically that.. any guide on what i could be doing wrong is greatly apreaciated. and any tip on what would be the best option.
also sorry for my english as it isnt my native tounge :)
