X.26286 RE REAR SPRINGS. X.34616
Now that we are using the solid bottom leaf with only one safety bolt at the end, we recommend that some more metal should be taken off the corner of the bottom plate. this will give us more clearance for the rear shock absorbers which at present are a close fit at that point.
