[Healeys] Loose part in rear spring

[Tracy Drummond]

Peter,

Take a look at the rear suspension area in Tech Articles (more) on the club
members' web site.  There are a about a half-dozen or so articles that may
be of some help.

If these leaf springs have never been replaced maybe it is that time.

Hope this helps.  Cheers!

Subject: [Healeys] Loose part in rear spring

On my BJ7, at the forward end of my leaf springs there is a short section of
leaf which wraps around the front end of the leaves, running back about 5 or
6 inches on the top and bottom of the other leaves.  On the right side of
the car this piece has about 1/16" of up and down play at its rear-most end.
On the left side of the car this piece has no play in it at all.  The two
clips which hold the leaves together in the front are loose too.  How can I
fix this?

Thanks,
