No time to post pictures today, because I've just got in a after a full day on the springs. The old one came off easy enough and when compared to the new has significantly less camber unloaded - it really has flattened out. It's been of great benefit to get the car ready before starting on the hard work though. I've covered the new springs with Denso tape, and I'm really pleased with how this has gone on, although you have to be careful when fitting the spring, because it's quite easy to pull the tape out of line. Before doing that I slackened the centre nut and first dribbled ep90 between the leaves, then later chain grease, before wrapping. Today I only had time to do the offside because it was a fight all the way. The rear shackle is very hard to access, and with a well cambered spring, it must be compressed about 2" to locate the bolt. What makes it worse is that there is a washer each side of the shackle which is very tricky to relocate. So that took a lot of time, but the other side should be easier tomorrow. The axle U bolts were not too bad, easier than the MGB, but access is terrible. For the front shackle pin, I used a couple of G clamps on the front of the spring and that worked quite well. This is hard work and I'm ready for a snooze. Pictures will follow when I get time.
