A stay assembly for supporting a main leg of a landing gear assembly of an aircraft in an extended position has a spring 450, 850, such as a downlock spring, with one end to be coupled to a stay arm 410 and another end to be coupled to a further component 405, such as a strut of a lockstay assembly. A spring extender extends the spring under tension to coupling the spring between the stay arm and the further component. A stay arm has an anchor fixture 475, an engager 460 mounted to the stay arm that engages and moves an end of a spring towards a spring fixing 485, 885, and a mechanical actuator component 480 that moves the engager against tension of the spring towards the spring fixing. Installing a spring arrangement to a sidestay comprises coupling an end portion of a spring arrangement to a fixing of a stay arm or further component, engaging an opposite end portion of the spring arrangement with a spring extender built in to the sidestay, and extending the spring arrangement to move and couple the opposite end portion to a fixing.
