Good luck, Adam

Close if not the same to my current thoughts.
Get 2 plates of steel (3/8"?)
In one plate Drill 4 holes for bolts that make sure it won't slip out of spring
In both plates, drill a hole for a 3/4" shaft
Insert shaft through engine compartment, through plate one down to and through plate 2, position nut and spin shaft into it.
Spin nut down ontop of plate 2 and tighten away.
