Rear Spring Fit - pics please

[Goldstar]

Hi Guys

Has anyone got a picture of the area where the rear spring fits to the chassis please - without the spring please?


I have den a search and I'm sure there will be one in Drews story but couldn't bring myself to search all 86 pages.....

Thanks

Thanks Steve what was there (or supposed to be there) before you fitted the extension piece? I've just taken the spring off the osr and there isn't what you would call an obvious recess or 'socket' (if you know what i mean) for it to fit into.

I have one with nothing else in there at all if it helps... This is an original spring locator

Thanks Neil, looks like I have just found another repair to make....this looks like its best done with the rear suspension out but could be done with it in place. Might have to call Stagdad looking at the second post :-)

Thanks Roger, confirms what I thought - he no longer there. MOT by 1 Jul looking a stretch now...
