[QUOTE="foton, post: 115791, member: 16041"] I used a real heavy spring ,heated the ends to make a eyelet to fit a 1/2 x13 x2 inch bolt in one end that I added a block on the attachment( to give me more threads) and drilled and taped to match bolt . On other end use a piece of continuous thread used a nut on either side of the eyelet to hold in place and made out of oak a harness to hold both hoses, nutted in place. works well but when you heat treated steel it softens so it losses memory and will not completely return in place if you tug on it to hard. there is a youtube video of a guy doing this with a garage door torsion spring. I did not use that spring I bought the heaviest spring that tractor supply had. I think if you watch the video you can come up with your own version. [/QUOTE]
