If the previous owner took the spring mechanism apart it’s probably because they broke it. I don’t think you can re-spring them without some special tool or way to tension them, they are difficult to manage even when assembled.

I bought a used top last year that the owner had damaged both sides, tried to replace one where they’d bentvthe arm and all and didn’t repair them correctly. you can buy replacement spring/5th arm assemblies for $125/ea and just swap the whole thing out for cheaper than the spring itself.
