I posted this question a few days ago and recieved some info (Thanks Doug,
Dave), but still need to have some things clarified.
I got a swing spring from a 76 Spitfire to replace the one in my MkII to
hopefully upgrade the handling a bit. From what I gather this is a
straightforward swap, and should bolt right into place, I just need to
blank off a couple of the unused mounting holes on the diff, right?
It was mentioned to me that since the axles on the 76 are longer than on
mine I would end up with positive camber. I thought that when Triumph
switched to longer axles they kept the same spring length, thereby
increasing Negative camber, is this correct? Has anyone bolted in the
longer driveshafts from a later model Spit into a MkI-III? The reason I ask
is so that I could grab the shafts from the junkyard Spit while it's still
there. Also what do people consider a good upgrade from the standard
shocks?
Thanks for any info! Tom S.F Ca
