Front Suspension

There is a lot to do when rebuilding the MG front suspension. All of the rubber bushings were replaced with modern polyurethane bushings. All rubber seals were replaced. All of the trunion (link) bushings were replaced and reamed to fit (done by Fortin's machine shop). All other points of wear were replaced. The wheel hub bearings were cleaned, checked for wear, and repacked with grease. Everything was cleaned, sandblasted, and painted.

Excellent work Henry! I'm currently doing a 1960 MGA frame-off restoration; how did you compress the front suspension spring and get it in place with out the weight of the engine?
