Spridgeteers,

I am hoping that one of you has the factory parts book for a later (65
on) semi eliptical leaf spring. My book covers only the Bugeye.
I need to know if the later 1/2 leafs are interchangabe between a
Sprite/Midget and an Austin A40.
The A40 spring assembly BMC part # is 2A5738, main leaf  # 2A5739.
If someone could check these numbers against a Sprite/Midget number I
would appreciate it. This will save me from taking off a spring from a
Sprite and trying it on the A40. Both cars have the same rear axle with
the A40 being wider. The leaf springs look very similar in length and
mounting.

Thanks for any help
