Help! Convertible Bj.1955 Rear leaf Spring 5 or 7
Posted: Tue Apr 06, 2021 4:47 pm
Hello together. At the risk of being ridiculed, I would like to ask you the following question.
On my Convertible, built in 1955, some bushes of the rear leaf spring are torn out and need to be replaced. I am thinking of replacing all the bushes with PU bushes. I would buy a complete kit with leaf springs from ESM. There is a 5 leaf set here for Convertible. However, there is no indication of the year of manufacture. On my Morris, 7 blades are currently installed. As far as I have researched, 5 blades were installed on this year of construction. https://www.morrisminorspares.com/rear- ... es-p831328
But I am not sure. I also think that PU bushings are somewhat harder. Is it not better for me to install new 5 blades?
I would be very grateful for any answers that could clarify things for me.
