Barry,

The article says to remove the wheels AND bearings. I think setting the bearings up perfectly is a bit of a chore - I think?? Someone described something like just jacking up the suspension sans wheel only, undoing, dropping, replacing and all so simple - or was I dreaming?

Subject: Changing front springs

Some lister gave a nice description on how to change the front coil springs
on an MGB and I meant to save it as I have to change mine (the front is
about 2" too high so I am going to uses 8+ coils instead what I think are
in there now at 10+).  But I did not save it and now I request that that
kind prince of coil changing repeat it!!   It seemed like a very simple way
as opposed to how I would attack it!!
