Can't reassemble gladiator mk2

[LilDioBrando]

Hi guys, i partially disassembled the gladiator mk2 stick, but i can't put it back together. The twist spring just won't stay in place. Please help me, see the attachment

The twist spring has 2 raised legs; you'll have to fit it around the plastic tab on the central post of the grip. You could get a glimpse here at how it should be, even if it's reversed operation of what you're looking for.

Looks good, now careful when you attach the front shell that has another tab that has to get between the spring's legs.

The mustache of the spring should wrap around the rectangular pad on both sides.
