Think I will need another plan, removing all to measure (while a pain) may be an option, but a run to Stoneleigh from Scotland to measure wheel gap, probably not. Back to the drawing board. Calum On Saturday, 1 April 2017 21:45:50 UTC+1, Jim Hearne wrote: > All the Quantum ones were red as

All the Quantum ones were red as far as i know. If they are black original Ford ones they will have 2 or 3 coloured bands about 1cm wide painted round a turn of the coil. You only real way of finding out is to take the springs off the car and measure them. Or wait until Stoneleigh and measure

Springs are black, not Red and I can see no markings on them. As said previously rear springs are sitting at 250mm approx. with car sitting on ground, so at a guess might be about 307mm (std rear 1100cc length) when not under load. So the spacer on Rear shock (about 50-60mm) can be removed and

There are possibly a number of QOC members who don't know what Stoneleigh is and how much the QOC put into the show for members. In the new QM which is due soon there is an article to hopefully rectify this and encourage more members to attend. Stoneleigh is, along with QM costs, where the club
