Hi All - Does anyone know how many leaves there are in a TC rear spring?
Abingdon catalogue and Sherrill look like 9 to me, my 2 boxes of bits have 9
in one and 10 in the other.Is the bottom leaf 6.5 or 11 inches? Thanks for
your help.
Cordially,
Tom TC0535

Mr. Badger - I knew that on the heels of the KY jelly saga, that I was on
thin ice asking any question involving 6.5 or 11 inches. Nope, not a trick
question, I'm trying to reassemble somebody else's take apart.
Cordially,

Hi All - Does anyone know how many leaves there are in a TC rear spring?
*According to the MG engineering drawings there are 9 leaves in each spring:
1-3/16" thick, 1-1/4" thick, and 7 7/32" thick. Static load is 476#, with
the spring being flat at a load of 385#. The total axle movement is 4.187"
Abingdon catalogue and Sherrill look like 9 to me, my 2 boxes of bits have 9
in one and 10 in the other.Is the bottom leaf 6.5 or 11 inches?
*The short (bottom) leaf is 7" long, 3 1/2" on either side of the center
bolt.
And lastly, the P/N for the spring was MG.876
That's alllllllllll Folks!
