Hey Guys, Putting on new stock rear springs on my '70 tomorrow. I know it is a pretty simple job but is there any technique or pitfalls to avoid? Thanks, Steve Kirsis, '70 and '75 6's. ______________

Steve-- Changing the rear springs is easy. After removing the wheels, disconnect the rear shock (links) to allow the trailing arm to drop down. You may have to then turn the rear hub a few deg. to le

Hi guys, What I thought was going to be an easy job has turned a bit sour. The replacement rear shocks from TRF for my '70 6 are about 1.5 lbs heavier than the ones I am replacing. It has been fruitl

I'm sorry Dick, I meant heavier springs. They are the same length but a pound and a half each heavier. I am going back at it again tonight. This time with 2 screwdrivers and a big bang. The TA is at

By Gosh Hugh, I think you've got it!! The rubber gaiters are in need of replacement and the outer and inner u joints could get a good grease. So off comes the hub. Ship Wright anyone? Its cold anyway

On some TR6's you need to undo the axle from the diff to allow the droop necessary to install the springs. The axle hits the frame rail and it won't drop far enough. Jim Franks ______________________

Why don't you dare install the springs without the spring pads? From what I have seen they are only there to prevent rattles. If you are trying to use uprated neoprine type pads they are probably th

Thanks to all for the help with the new springs in my '70. I disconnected the axle fron the differential and voila, the TA fell about 2 more inches for a slick fit with the new uprated pads. It is ve

Excellent. Not all cars need to disconnect, but depending on the spring and the configuration of the differing forward attachments, some do. Jim Franks _______________________________________________

I've set up several different TR6 setups with different springs. I have never had a spring rattle problem except when running extremely short springs and even then you need to get really, really out
