<< Jerry Rein asks about lowering his Midget's rear a little.
Two solutions - 1) use lowering blocks sold by various of the Brit car parts
suppliers, or 2) have a spring shop reverse one of the spring eyes. I'm
actually going to do that to my B to lower the rear for racing.

I installed new 1500 springs on my 73 midget to replace the sagging rear, new
springs made rear too high. Looks like the PO made new longer shackles to
raise the rear to compensate for the sag.
I will either have to purchase the real shackles or re drill the holes in the
ones on the car. I haven't seen any lowering blocks in the catalogs I have.
Where?
