New rear axle

Hi all,

I'm in the process of fitting a dolomite sprint axel to my minor and want to know what kind of angle the axel needs to be for the prop shaft?

Kind regards
Stuart.

leaf spring rating

Hi,

I'm fitting a dolomite sprint back axle to my minor and was considering fitting it with a 5 link set up, however if i can get a set of leaf springs that are hard then I will choose this route. can any one tell me what the poundage the existing leaf springs are?

Kind regards
Stuart.
