Help needed with kick start spring installation

For some reason I had the brilliant notion that I needed to disassemble the kick start mechanism to advance the shaft. My goal is to have the lever engage earlier – right now it engages at 3 o'clock. I believe all I needed to do was take the lever off and move it up one spline. Anyway, I'm trying to reassemble the spring and am having difficulties. I know how it should look when done. Does anyone have any tips or trick to get it properly installed? It looks like the spring would go into the spring holder first. But what holds the shaft in place when installing the spring? And it looks like the shaft needs to be pushed out a bit to be able to get the tab of the spring in. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks,

Thanks for the video link. Unfortunately, he never takes the spring and shaft apart.

For the record, you install the spring into the spring holder and the hole in the shaft. Rotate the shaft - I used a vise grip - until it is passed the point where it would engage with the gear (the recess in the spring holder by the lower screw in the photo above.) Make sure the shaft is pushed all the way into the case. Place the pawl spring and pawl. Gently rotate the shaft backwards until it stops (approximately in the position in the photo above). Now wasn't that easy!

Also, I noticed that the one of the springs for the spring holder was on the loose side. Might be a good idea to check them next time you're in the clutch cover.

This is what i did.

Thanks moto_surfer. I heard a video existed. I just couldn't find it. I did advance my kick lever but haven't started it yet. I'm hoping that works out...
