OK, you right-hand drive guys - do old Bs in the UK lean to the right?
I've just been through this with my '76. A set of new front springs and
two sets of rear springs later, and after a trip to the frame shop, it
still leaned an inch to the left. The frame shop confirmed my own guess -
the car is totally straight - including spring pans, A-arms, and front
Xmember. They finally 'fixed' it with a couple of spring helpers on the
left front - something I'm not entirely happy about but that's the way it
is right now.
Finding decent new rear springs for Bs is a problem. I will say that Moss
graciously accepted a return/refund on a set that raised the rear end
enough to cause the oxygen masks to drop down - even though I didn't
discover it until over two years after purchase. Anybody have some new
solutions?
