    I am replacing a shower stem _ Danco 3S-9H/C
    Can you tell me which direction the rubber cup and spring go in? Don't want to turn water supply back on and have a mess in the house! Can't find a blow up of this on the net. Thanks

    Hi Bamafan75

    I believe Dancos springs and cup washer go in exactly as pictured below... thick end of spring in first and then cup washer over that.

    Good luck!

    Agree with the above post: the wider part of the spring sits on the bottom and rubber cap on top of the spring. FYI: this set up is a copy of Delta design. Back to you. Milo
