Title: Fitting a new front spring
Post by: baron_matt on May 15, 2014, 04:48:32 PM
Hi all

Well my parts have just arrived from Poland and I have the recon starter, alternator and a new front spring cluttering up the hallway.

So does anyone have any tips etc on how to fit a new front spring? This has arrived with the bushes fitted and the rubber bump stop fitted in the middle at the top.

I have also obtained at great expense the rubber coated U shaped brackets that hold it and the rubber buffers that fit above them.

I'm hoping it will be a straight forward operation but if there are any pitfalls I'm hoping someone can let me know.

Cheers

Matt
