Here are pics and descriptions of when I replaced the rear springs in my Midget.

This first shots show how the driver's side sagged quite a bit.

1. It sags a bit to the driver side. You can see my classically rusty camaro to the right.

2. Another saggy shot.

These next shots are of the setup.

1. A good side shot showing the axle, spring, and limiting straps.		2. I would normally put the jackstand under the spring, or at the spring mounting plates. Can't do that, so I'll just spread the load a little.
3. Other side sans limiting straps.

These next shots show just how bad the existing limiting straps truly were, and some other stuff.

1. Here is the rotten and falling apart limiting strap in position.		2. Old and new straps, old and new bump stops.
3. back floor where some spring mounting bolts are hidden.		4. New and old springs lying together. Note the difference.
5. U-bolts, hardware and stuff sitting on the floor. Look at the dirt that came out of the mounting points.		6. Old and new rubber bushings... Jesus!
7. Old and new springs and things again.

Aaaand finally the more level and happy midget.

I wish I had more detailed photos, but this gives you the idea.
