Good day folks.
I know that I've seen this discussed but can't seem to find the thread.
We're to the point on the front suspension of installing the springs. The BMC shop manual suggests using two 4 inch long 3/8" fine thread, hardened bolt to draw up the bottom spring plate and compress the spring. That doesn't seem like fun.
It there a better/easier way?
Is 4" long enough?
Threaded rod would be too soft, right?
I should mention that the car is on a rotisserie. No engine or trans. installed.
Thanks in advance for input.
