Anyone know of a good tutorial for getting to the pinion bearing in a Millionaire CVX/CVZ 103?

ugghhhh!!!!!  i hate these!  i specifically avoided a tutorial on these reels because of the level of difficulty in servicing the pinion bearing.  the process is "straight in, straight out."  the springs are the main problem.  they are very difficult to get back into place.  take photos along the way.  that will help.  alan

see the two springs?  the big one is the one that causes so much trouble.  http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=1717.0
