Kickstand problem

Some time ago, I stopped and while putting my kickstand down it just came off from my foot. The components with the picture fell off. I need help to re-mount it.

No offense, but have you tried? It's pretty obvious where the bolt goes? If I had to guess, the spring goes on the little "ball" sticking out of the stand arm, and probably mates with a recessed surface inside of the part that is still attached to the bike. (Pics don't show the insides).

There's 3 loose parts, that's not a lot of ways to fit these things!

If the bolt doesn't screw tight into the part that's still on the bike, the threads may be stripped, in which case you'd need to find a longer one and use a nut on the other side.

I've tried putting it in. There is no parts in the inside, just space. I put the spring in, then the ball that is sticking out on the spring and the bolt on the hole, but the stand is too loose and when testing the bike by jumping it up and down the stand slowly falls down. And after putting the stand up and down the bolt somehow came out a bit by itself.

So you are either missing parts that fell off before you put the kickstand down or some broke off.

Solution.... buy a new kickstand

Here are a couple to choose from that look similar to yours

I prefer the rear-mounted kind, myself. The local cops have them on their bikes, too. https://www.amazon.com/Greenfield-SK.../dp/B002FVYTLI
