[QUOTE="wings5j, post: 42994, member: 1341"] My rig is a 742B and when I got it, I had the same problem. It drove me nuts and it didn't take long for me to decide it was a “must fix” item. I am away from home so I don't have access to my service manual but here is what I recall from memory. After taking both sides apart, I found that one of the springs were broken. I decided to get new springs for both sides (not very expensive anyway). When I brought home the new parts and compared them to the old, it was nice to see that they were now using a heavier duty spring. Anyway, that cured my problem and I haven't had to do anything else since. Good luck, John [/QUOTE]
