That's exactly what I thought....
Then last year I changed my spit with narrow drive shafts ie high ride
height/toe in - bottom of the wheels were well in ie \ / - this had
been incorrect for 10 years (having put in a new spring) to long drive
shafts and it went to near perfect ie l l -!
Go figure!

Possibly a long drive shaft spring from a 1500.
Two drive shafts on a Mk IV (mostly short)and 1500 (long) 1 inch difference
