CR 6 Max extruder issue (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have a CR 6 Max and I took apart the extruder and now whenever I put it back there are always problems.

Firstly the spring is impossible to put back correctly so it never aligns perfectly.

When I managed to screw in the screws such that is was as good as I could make it, now the filament does not insert properly.

How do I proceed from here? Is there an easier way to put it back together? Is it possible to get another extruder that works differently but is compatible with the cr 6 max?

Don't have the max version but I believe they shared the same extruder as cr6 se

This video shows how to put it back together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adVzvhmIKZM

And they are several option to replace extruder. Cheap one are the same compatible of ender 3 like this one at 4€ https://a.aliexpress.com/_EyXIa19 but you will have to print a raiser for the filament sensor
