I would appreciate your collective thoughts re my 1989 +4 rear leaf springs.
I discovered recently a nice concave rounded indent in the wooden support/cross member on the underside of the rear parcel shelf which looks suspiciously like the imprint of the diff, judging from its position. Since then I have noticed an occasional mellow thud when going over some holes or bumps. I use chain oil each year on the springs to keep them supple (I hope) but wonder if it is time to get them changed. From what I can see they do not look to be obviously sagging or broken. The next service/MOT is in a couple of months at BHM. Think I should just wait and get them to have a look or arrange to have it done asap?
