    I have started work on the rear suspension on my Sprite, pretty much replacing everything. I am looking to put together a tech-session on Saturday April 14th or Sunday April 15th. 

    Parts are all ordered, disassembly started, but I have run into some bolts that I just can't get off. They hold the plate the holds the end of the leaf-springs up facing the front of the car. So I might have those off by the TS or it might be the first thing to attack.

    Let me know if you are interested in lending a hand.

    Would enjoy and benefit from a tech session on the suspension.  Happy to lend a hand though my inexperienced hand is probably useless beyond "hey, hand me that spanner over there...."

    Big Thanks to Ken and Charlie. Just took the Sprite out. The rear end has to be about 6" higher the before. I feel like I am driving a Cadilac now. What a huge difference!
