I noticed my mini sitting high in the back the other day and the front was sitting on the bump stops.
After reading some of the old emails on here I went to check the rear springs.
Right spring is broken.
Question is does the right fuel tank need to come out to get to the top nut.
Thanks Felix

Or you could cut a hole in the rear bulkhead as they sometimes did with the Works cars :)

Cheers, Ian

Thanks All,
I'll see if I can move the tank out far enough to get access to the top nut.
