Re: Front Springs positioning.

["Wood,Andrew" <alw@domain.elided>]

I'm in the process of carrying out a similar exercise on my Stag with the 
help of the Haynes workshop manual rather than the official one. I'm pretty 
sure that the Haynes manual  makes reference to positioning the springs 
although I have not quite got to that stage yet.

Further to my spring position comment I notice that the TR7 manual makes a
similar issue to the rear springs, they have to be face forward.

as for the Stag, seeming that the 2000 and the stag are all similar, I see
no reason not to apply the suggestion.
