So while most of the instructions are easy enough to get for me, there's a few that are totally in japanese and the pictures themselves don't make it super obvious. I'm trying to figure out what the rod-looking thing in the middle with no label is. It came with some long springs and I think it's probably those, though they look too long.

So it should be the Medium length one in the top picture,  and  long length one in the second ..


中  means medium,   長 means long.

Oh and also these. It only gave me enough springs to make those little cable tubey things that the prior instructions were for, so I'm not sure what springs I'm supposed to be using

Well there's one spring that's thinner, but it's way too long to fit here and that is the medium length on that gets used elsewhere

Either way it looks like this spring is way too Damn short... Ugh. There are two short springs so I wouldve assumed that would be the two legs...
