 #Once it is in position clamp it with a set of vise-grips or other clamp.
 #Next you need to fabricate a backing plate to hold the Teflon bracket and pulley straight while under load.  I used an old drawer slide.  I bought 2 #10 bolts and a couple locking nuts from the hardware store.  I bolted through the indentation locations on metal part of the regulator.  Also, I bought 1/4" long aluminum spacers.  Have seen other people do this differently, but this worked for me.  The main goal is to keep the upper teflon bracket from flopping over and binding the cables up.
