Hesketh-Jones sent in an email saying "following Chris Armitage's useful
V8NOTE369, I am fitting rubber bumper 1800 rear springs
and MOSS anti-tramp bars to my chrome bumper MGBGTV8 but I was disappointed to
see that the rear end of the car is still much lower than the front. This "rear-droop"
is exacerbated because when I fitted the new front cross-member earlier this year,
I also fitted new front springs and these make the front quite a bit higher than
before. I plan to send the old V8-spec springs off to Brost & Co for |
re-tempering, resetting to the softer weight, and reshaping to correct the "rear
droop", but need to know what to ask them to do. Do you know if there is
any published information on the height of the back end, measured from the floor
to either the stainless steel trim strip, or to the bottom of the wheelarch? Or
ANYTHING? If nothing is written anywhere, could I ask you to measure your car
and let me have the details." | |
