I had Skip the tower wizard replace my cables last fall on
the HDX-5106 and he used a come-along to completely
compress the spring.  He then doubled up the cable and
applied a crosby clamp so as to maintain no slack.  This was
done with the tower in the vertical position.  He had
a special clamp that could grip the cable in mid span.
Hope this helps.
