Could someone help me understand how to repair the drag clicker pin and spring on the drag star for a curado 100d or chronarch 50mg. The pin has come out and I am not sure how to replace and keep it in place.

what you have to do is put the star drag on tight, all the way down on the NUT (ready for handle assembly), then insert the spring, then Bullet clicker ~ & place the Plastic washer on top to hold it all in place (make sure serrated side is on clicker) ~ While you install the handle assembly & hold it all down at the same time.

Need 3 or 4 hands & a foot, but youll get it with a few attempts/tries...  

Many times the spring is short enough that just setting the Plastic washer on it will keep it all together while you put the handle on...

When your done & can do it easily.. Brain Surgery will be an easy task...   ;D
