When all is normal, should look like this photo (except with a hub in the middle).


sandyman65535 FTW!

All but one spring were broken and ground to pieces along with the bracket and hinge that makeup the handbrake system. After calling around I was able to get the 3 springs needed for about $25 per spring. insanity. Plus another $20 for the hinge and bracket. So I got it put back together for under $100.

Though, now I am aware of my busted CV boots... :/
