Morning everyone. Continue to rely heavily on this community for my TR4 build...thanks!! Really close to getting it into "roller stage". I am sort of stuck on how to address the gap that exists between my new leafs and axle. I ordered the early TR4 springs from Moss (Moss Part 851-195 / 208636) thinking they would allow me to mount the axle footing pads directly to the top of the springs. The pictures in the parts catalogs and some of the pics in the TR manual lead me to believe that mounting them net tight the the top of the springs is how the "early" type springs worked. My guess was that the "later" type springs were deeper dish and required the distance piece (per moss part number 851-210 which calls out the need for the distance piece). I attached 2 pictures. I have about 1.5 inch gap to span between the top of spring and axle pad. Seems like the leaf would have to be completely flat across for spring and axle to attach directly to each other. Makes me wonder if I got early and late style spring mixed up, and the later style is flatter than the earlier? (or possibility exists that the pictures are an optical illusion and the spring I have is the flattest it is going to get, and there was never any application that had the axle mounting directly to the top of the spring) I found this thread, seems like the the distance piece in this picture is what I need, can anyone confirm? https://www.britishcarforum.com/bcf...ight-on-non-IRS-TR&highlight=rear+leaf+spring.
