Does anyone have a picture of this spring and/or know where to get one?

Sorry, no pic.

I have the special clip and washer for this but not the spring. The assembly manual calls it out in section 7, sheet 2.00 and calls it out as spring #3698237. If I were to guess, its 1/2" I.D. and maybe 1/2" - 3/4" long when installed. | | |
