Springs
Jim-Willy:
Are SWB and LWB rear springs the same length? I am wondering if a set of parabolics off a 109" will go on my 88".
Welshbreed:
109's are longer on the rear, and will not fit an 88 without modification to the chassis
Bob Ajob:
It'll do some funny things if you fit them, our swb had 109" springs on it when we bought it, it pushed the body into a proper funny angle. After a year (springs removed soon after bought it) it's sort of settled down. I would say don't do it unless you fancy twisting your chassis or something.
Jim-Willy:
I got outbid anyway so academic.... Cheers anyway.
Bob Ajob:
How's your restoration / rebuild coming along Jim-Willy? Not seen your post for a while, I take it you're going to change the springs soon?...
