Spent an enjoyable day trialing. Just about to go and use the hose pipe to cover our drive in mud.
Anyway, having now had a check round on getting home I find the near-side rear shock absorber has mainly disappeared (there is a stub left on the chassis) and the spring on the same corner is half out of its seat on the chassis.
If I jack up on the rear bumper (hi-lift) with another (trolley) jack under the diff, and then take off the wheel and lower the trolley jack will that give me enough play to get the spring back in its socket? Will this work?
Also, the loss of a shock absorber seems to have made no difference to the vehicle at all (I thought it was driving better than normal on the way home). Any problems with my leaving it a few days until I can replace both back ones as a pair? The vehicle is never heavily laden. Any recommendations for shocks for a 90? :0)
Thanks.
