Anyone have a simple picture of how the rear end connects to quarter elliptic springs on a BE and how radius arms connect. BE i'm looking at has rear end out of the car. The Right Rear Spring is installed and the other is out of the car due to a bulkhead repair. Parts never got put back together after all of the metal work was completed.Trying to figure out how rear end attaches to the BE. Looking at my Bible i.e. Moss Catalog, it doesn't show clearly how things bolt back together. Is it simply what appear to be large bolts on the top ends of the differential that go through the bushings on the quarter elliptic springs. I'm trying to figure out a transport issue and whether or not I need to fabricate something to support the rear end for transport on a trailer(i.e. furniture dolly and some 2 x 4's, or do I need to try to find all of the parts and pieces in the P.O.'s garage and try reinstalling differential prior to transport.
Engine, tranny, differential are all out of the car. Front suspension is still installed so transport weight will be light for the top. Biggest question, I think I could load & move with a furniture dolly supporting the rear end. But how to secure the back end of the BE to a trailer with nothing to tie it down with i.e. Rear end and only one quarter elliptic spring installed on the PS? Thoughts gentlemen?
