Hi all,
I have an XG-9 with several issues like broken winding gears and springs. I've fixed a couple of them just through the bottom but I think I have to dig a little deeper now (the mirror only drops down about 3/4 of the way). Can someone help me with the sequence of removing: top, bottom, lens mount, front, mirror box, and shutter assembly? I almost have it but the front seems to be hung up on something. When I try to lift it out the mirror box and shutter assembly start to move out with it and I can't see what's holding it back. Any tips/tricks/secrets I should know about? Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

John T.
