Re: ooops
It's hard to tell the rear diff angle in that pic, the s shaped springs don't help that though
Russ you couldn't get another good pic showing the rear diff flange angle in relation to the tbox flange could you?

That diff angle is awesome. Whats going on with it?
I don't like propshafts going. Snapped a UJ on a tipper i was driving up Millom Bank in cumbria fully freighted.
Took out air bags, air lines and various other chassis mounted bits.

will give 'em a call monday.
the diff angle might be due to both nackered springs and deflex shackles.
oooh...... messy.... were you at speed? musta been a sphincter clencher!

Re: ooops
Looks like a bit of remedial work required Russ.
Can't say it was a sphincter clencher. Soon as the air line went the brakes locked on and that was it till the man with his heavy wrecker turned up. I don't miss working for that firm.

Re: ooops
But if you gave up what would you do with all the spare time?
Thats one reason i'm avoiding SPOA. Unless it's done well it kills springs. A suzuki is never too rotten. I'm contemplating putting a new floor pan in.
If it weren't for Suzukis i'd have to work more weekends just to fill the time. And what would i spend all that spare/extra cash on? It would be pointless having it, lol.
