Did yours have the escutcheon and the retention bracket under the escutcheon? It isnt in your photo (you may have left those out of the photo).
The snap ring holds the compressed spring which pushes back on the threaded collar and that pushes back to the main handle-stem assembly. You should be able to attach the under retention bracket with two screws to the door...then the escutcheon + threaded collar + handle by threading the collar (which pulls the escutcheon and handle with it) in using an external spanner with a stud that goes into that hole in the threaded collar...the hole is a spanner stud grasping feature, not a hole for a set screw. Its a bit finicky and a PIA (be careful not to scuff your paint job). Take a close up photo of the collar threads so we can see if it is worn/broken off, etc...often happens and you need a new collar (several people will have one of those, especially at Hershey). let me know if this explanation and photos confuses or clarifies.

Hmmmmm , that escution may be whats missing, along with the threads on that chrome threaded ring with the hole in it.
That's what I tried taking a better picture of , the threads seem broken off short or worn , and the inside where it threads to seems to have been buggered up a bit. I will try and re-assemble it , and check for that escution , and get back about it. Tough as I don't have internet in the car shop and have to go back to the bike shop to check the forum and search etc. Thanks for the great pictures and details ! ![]()

The photo is a tad blurred, but it look to be in good enough shape to use (better than some I've dealt with).
In addition to a possible missing escutcheon, is the "under bracket" still screwed onto your door? check its threads...maybe cleaning up the threads on both it and the collar will create a positive fastening. Will you be at Hershey?
