take it off and check the overall sizes from the origional ones, if they are bigger jack the shassis up and make shure the axel droppes enough. you may have a siezed centre linkage, theres 2 bars going from the axel at the back that go up onto the body area just infront of the fuel tank. i had this problem and the springs were ok. after a good douse in wd40 and a trip to waddon it freed itself.....just a thought :wink:

where did  ya get them from ????????????????? bearing in mind too that if they are pro comp springs they should be marked up n/s and o/s for the front springs ...also the o/s spring is fractionally longer than the n/s one
