Side deflector wouldn't hold the chute on- the projections on the deflector had worn off

I went on line and found a similar repair and did what they did- I did easily find the part I needed on Replacement parts and got my mower going again fairly easily. At one point in the repair I had to get my wife to push in the rod while I held the spring in place but other than that I did it by myself. I was on the verge of buying a new mower- the $40 parts saved me from that. Thanks
