Before I knew better I tried to drift out the bolt only to find that they
were threaded as well as fastened with a nut. This was with a 76 S3 but they
have always been that way. I have some original rear shackles from my 86 S1
that are slightly shorter than the S3 set up if you are looking for
originality. Otherwise the S3 fit but with a slight change to the hanger
setting as they are longer. Also if you go with the S3 set up there is a
thread change on the bolts and threaded hangers meaning that you go for new
hangers bolts and nuts. They are probably UNF or metric but I cannot recall.
Let me know if the old ones are of any use to you.
Regards
Alyn

Subject: SER1 Spring shackles
Hi,
On looking in my parts catalogue, with regard to ordering some new spring
shackles, I see that for a 88 they are listed as one side plain, and one
side tapped (threaded). However, when I checked the current set up on my
series one, both sides appear to be plain, with a bolt going straight
through, and with a nut on the end.
Does anyone know what is the correct set up please?
Cheers
