Thanks Paul, very helpful.

Just had my spring off and on. I just puts jacks and axle stands under the chassis member under the back of the door. Be careful to keep clear of brake pipe.

Morning all,
I am about to change the rear springs on my MGA and am thinking about the best way to support the car. My Haynes manual tells me to place a support under 'the rear cross-body member'. Does this mean the tube at the very rear of the chassis, behind the fuel tank? The alternative would be to place a support under the chassis side rails, in front of the spring anchorage point. Any vi...

Can anyone tell me the size of the six screws that hold the sending unit to the tank. I'm guessing they are the same as the TC TD, but they seem to be VERY expensive from the usuals. Almost $10 each from Moss!

Hoping to find them elsewhere

Thank

Joe

Here is TD 4139. It has an added temperature gauge. The tube runs through the oil line/tach cable hole hole behind the battery.

You have to run the temperature tube through the hole first.

G'day Malc. ,how're things going with you.

you asked about weights, my old hillclimber thing went 520kg and dead on 600 with me in it @ exactly 150 on each wheel---it's important to do your scaling with the driver onboard---my next car was going to be the magic 55% rear weight, but that's not happening now mostly because of rule changes at 'our hill'

When you look at who is left now I dont think an interim leader makes any difference. Every MP they have left is a lightweight.

Very nice. I wonder what it's mpg is. Expensive to tour in?

Slightly off topic other than this is old (1954) and doesn't need fixing. It is the current transport for a German couple on a touring holiday in Dumfries & Galloway. In lovely original condition and certainly travelling in style!

I can confirm that it is quite oversteery 😂
