Fabulous to see these images. They are also mentioned in the index cards on springs, currently in another thread.
It does bring up the whole thing re. greasing. I'm presuming springs were never designed to be greased, and that it was a whole aftermarket thing generating cash for more bits of kit to do it.
Inter-leaf greasing changes the spec of the spring, surely, resulting in more give?
Is there any evidence of two conflicting strategies operating within the factory, one for aftermarket sales, one for perfect operating spec?
