Rear coil springs
« on: 27 February 2009, 17:22:55 »

Hi all, I need some help fitting new rear springs to my saloon miggy. The trouble is my drive is not safe enough to jack up the whole back end also my back is'nt in the best of health. I really need some help and advice from someone on here thats done the job themselves before. I've read the excellent how to guide but it still looks a bit scary.
I'm happy to pay someone for there time and provide all the tea and biscuits they can eat.. I've got plenty of tools,jacks and axle stands.
My car still drives ok so i can travel just about anywhere in the midlands. And i've already bought the new springs so its just a matter of when and where. I'm free all this weekend and monday and tuesday so if anyone out there can help me out it would be great.
thank you in advance
Mark :) :)
