Just one small point, wasn't the swing spring from early MkIV Spits(about
70-73) shorter than the later ones, as these had the drive shafts that were an
inch shorter, therefore, Larry would need this shaft to suit the Mk2 shafts,
otherwise, if the spring is longer then would that create a weird amount of
positive camber on the rear wheels???? Or am I just talking crap??? (But I
won't mention Q-ship)
