Great video, I have never changed a garage torsion spring but watching your video gave me the step by step know how. I successfully accomplished the task of changing both springs in about an hour and a half going really slow. I probably could of done it in an hour but I chose to watch the step by step video in between each step ensuring that I made no mistakes. The tip with using the file was spot on because I ran in to the issue with the large pole that holds the springs sliding back and forth. Thanks to having the metal file handy, I was able to shave it down and have it move freely. Again, great video and thank you for taking the time to help out the diy community.
