Expert Reply:
The springs shouldn't need any adjustment and they should feel pretty tight by hand. Did you replace the shock? That's typically what causes the brakes to stick like you mentioned. For a replacement shock for the Model 6 like what the master cylinder you referenced fits you'd want the part # T1242600.
