Rear spring replacement
I am about to put a new rear spring in and I have always disconnected everything because I was removing the complete rearend. This time I just want to change the spring so if I remove the wheels and disconnect the shock links will the rearend drop down enough with the brake rods still attached to sneak out the spring? I know if I try this I will have to unbolt the anti-rattlers as well. Just wondering. The brake clevises are a bit of a pain in the butt. Thanks for your opinions, Marc

Re: Rear spring replacement
no the brake rods will have to be undone at the axle end. and the antirattlers unbolted as well.

Re: Rear spring replacement
You still need a spring spreader to remove the shackles.
