Badman arm change

Ok, thanks - I can get that exact set from Amazon UK as well.

So, once I've got the arm off, would it be simple to attach in the other pair - is this something you've done?

As long as you do it correctly, it’s not hard. Otherwise, it’s a royal pain in the ass
 
You're starting to worry me now - I can do without royal pains in the ass!!!

I need an idiot-proof user guide - don't suppose you can point me in the direction of one?
 
They’re a little tricky as you have to have the arm in the pulled
Out position to be able to attach it to the rest of the frame.

Best way to do it is to create a half loop from a strong piece of wire and use it as a lever to depress the spring. Once it’s pulled out enough, use a flat piece of metal as a wedge to keep it held in the depressed position. Assembly from there is pretty straight forward. This process should be the same for the Badman/Madman

Apologies to @StG for using your pics. I’m not at home at the moment to take my own

Ok, thanks for that - I think I understand the approach needed.

Talking to you has confirmed that its something I should try - thanks - although I may be back for more advice when I'm actually attempting to do the swap.

I think you’ll be fine. It looks and sounds more complicated than it really is. Good luck
