And one less previous owner nonsense (red springs).
No exceptional difficulties, the bolts for the shock absorbers needed some convincing to come out, but nothing serious compared to salt-soaked marine diesel bolts.
No spring compressor required, with the shocks disconnected I gently let the rear axle down until the springs could be lifted out.
@yngmar I have no experience of my own. But I thought about the hobby a few years ago, read a lot and watched a lot of YT videos. And this kind of steel was mentioned several times.
@ubo Neat. I did keep a dull circular saw blade thinking about making something with that, didn't know about spring steel.
It's something I'd like to try eventually, but can't go about setting up a forge in Schwiemu's sacred garden, so we need to find our own place first :)
