SNX-C01 mentions a bungee to support the elevator level or slightly down and warns you not to cut it too short. I used a small pulley on one end and a bungee from the other end going around the pulley and going back to an adjustable cleat, a small yacht fitting, so that the bungee is easily adjustable.
