Which plate?

Which plate are you getting Maurice?<br>
<br>
Is it the same as the one on Ebay (that Jonners has already pounced on) or the sprint one?<br>
<br>
I need one for my 15HL as I cant NCT (MOT) it until I get one.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

Rear springs

If your dampers are slackened off then surely this will cause the "nodding dog" syndrome where the dampers aren't damping the sping effectively.

<br>
The rear g/box mounting on the back of the subframe has to be removed and the extra crossmember from the o/d car ...
