Adrian,
Good luck with the springs I just changed the one on my 73 BGT last year.
Tough job because the front shackle bolts were rusted in place and so was
the bolt on one shock link. I would order the instalation kit with the
springs because the come with new bolts for when you have to grind the off.

Hi Folks,
I've just noticed my Midget is lower to the ground at the back, on
the driver's side. I was hoping that the tire may have less air in it than
the other side, but, alas, no. Taking a look underneath, one of the leaf
springs is broken, so I guess I'm going to be changing 'em. Geez, this car
is going to be like Granpa's axe, totally original - just had five new
handles and nine new heads.
According to Haynes, the job looks pretty simple (ha!). Is there
anything I should know before starting and anything else I should be doing
"while I'm at it"?
Much appreciate any advice.
TIA, Adrian
