Chassis issues
#6
My special has a short chassis and a Ruby back axle.   I think - I will have to check - the original lugs are cut off, and two new lugs welded on to the casings to suit the spring positions.

All you need then is a non standard pin, easily made from 1/2" bar, and a spacer.   Has worked well for 40 years, and much simpler than bending springs sideways or shortening things.

You presumably use the holes for the pins in the axle ends as drilling guides.

I will try and get a photo, though the car isn't here.
