| What would be the easiest way to remove the rear springs from my Derby without removing the rear axle. |

Chock front wheels.
Lift rear of car onto axle stands.
With jack under differential lift up axle.
Remove the pinned U bolt nuts , you may have to lift jack further to get the axle shoe free. Put axle tubes on stands, after removing the U bolts.
There is a chassis lubrication pipe running on top of the nearside (LH)spring under the gaiter. Remove it.
You may have a little trouble with the vertical damper "rods".
Remove shackle pin nuts and pins. |
