spring cleaning!

Hi all,

Got my new springys from Baxter and easily fitted rears. Shocks are in great nick. Thanks for the tip Andrew.

Started work on one of the fronts and got spring off and shock good.

Having a problem compressing new spring to fit back in. Any way round? Also, any tip for getting the shock piston back up through as it has to be squeezed to match the top of the spring.

Anyway I've had enough for today so maybe I'll be refreshed tomorrow and compress it with my fingers!

Big difference in rear height.

Many thanks,

Tony
