Hi,
I'm slowly trying to put together the front suspension on my Tiger and I
have a question about a coil spring spacer. I took the car apart about 20
years ago and I'm just now trying to put it back together. I have rubber
spacers that look like they go on the top of the springs (according to the
shop manual) but I also have some aluminum spacers that I believe were on
the bottom of the springs. I don't see these aluminum pieces in the shop
manual, so I don't know where they came from. I guess it is possible the
original owner added them but they are shaped to fit the springs. So I
guess they were specifically made for the Sunbeam coil springs. Does
anybody know about these things? Should I put them back in? Or should I
find another rubber spacer of some kind so that the spring isn't just
digging into the A-arm?
Thanks,
