I have not seen that type. I have a couple of pairs (two diiferent brands) that do not have any sort of stop. I think that would make all the difference. What brand/model do you have?
I don't think I'd be able to install the four finger contact last. I always put it in first.
If they are in good shape, I save the old wires too. I have some of the currently available replacement push-back wire on hand, but it isn't really an exact match for the original stuff.
