[BaadAssGremlins] 77 AMX springs

["Dan M." <vegadan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Well, I was able to work on the springs tonite.  I had some spacer 
plates made by a machine shop to fit around the spring center bolt 
washer.  They are 4"x2.5"x1/8" with a 13/16" hole in the middle.  They 
fit perfectly and are the thickness of the washer, so the entire 
center bolt above the washer fits into the spring perch.

But now I am having another problem.  I tightened the ubolt nuts, and 
they dug into the shock plate (pretty severly in 1 spot).  Has this 
happened to anyone else?  Did I do something stupid (not the firt 
time)?  I plan to get some grade 8 washers, which by the way, none 
were included with my purchase.  Are there supposed to be washers 
between the nuts and the shock plate?

Thanks,
Dan
