any chance of the top spring retaining cups of the front macphearson strutts ? saw a thread on here somewhere that suggested that these could be used to restrain the springs on the rear of my S7.

Yes, they are cut down on the Robin hood and inverted into the roll bar tube to locate the top of the rear spring.

 

I have 3 sets, 1 prepped for myself, 1 set on the rolling chassis and a third set one the Sierra being stripped.

I believe this is what I need. Mine is a little different to the 2b as it is the earlier S7, so monocoque/ tub like at the back. Problem I have is that the springs don't seem to sit in anything that keeps them in one place at the top. There seems to be some sort of shallow square box type housing each side which on mine sits up against the underside of the boot floor, which appear to have wooden inserts but nothing actually holding /housing the springs. Am thinking I could mount the lower mcph cups directly to the underside of the boot floor which would stop the springs from moving around under heavy throttle. What do you think ?

Martin, have just spent 2 days chasing round in ever decreasing circles on the wiring --to (at last) find I have an intemittant fault on my dip/flasher/hazzard switch; has anybody laid claim to the switches on your scrapper-- if not how much & could you bring them to Exeter? Cheers; Bob.
