Seems like the different length axles would affect the camber with longer axles contributing to the rear end squat that a lot of Spitfires seem to have. VB lists the same spring part number for 71-80 Spitfire Mk4 1500 and 73 GT6. They do show Spitfire axles changing to the same part number as 1973 GT6 on 1973 model year Spitfire, as you noted. The shorter axles measure 11" between the U joint yoke and the dust shield, the longer ones are 12". Dave
>Didn't the longer axles coincide with introduction of >the swing spring rear suspension? ===== No. Swing-spring introduced for 1971 models. Longer axles introduced for 1973 models. - - --Andy Mace *** http://www.team.net/the-local *** Your messages not reaching the list?
