ABSTRACT:
A system and method for obtaining a given preload on a spring for use in a device which requires a given spring setting or preload. A receptacle is provided for containing the spring and including at least one member positionally movable in response to the spring setting. First shims are placed between the receptacle and the spring for adjusting the spring setting outside the device while the positiion of the movable member is fixed at the given preload. Second shims are placed between the receptacle and a portion of the device for readjusting the spring setting inside the device at the given preload. An access opening through the device affords observation from outside the device of the position of the movable member inside the device to compare the readjustment with the first adjustment.
