Is that long spring that is on ( or used to be ) all my drums a critical thing? The media blast guy took them off when he blasted my hubs - painted everything nice but now I'm not sure how I'm going to put them back on and was wondering if it's necessary. Thanks in advance, Brian p.s. My new rear springs just showed up - might even have the '62 Dart back on the road tomorrow ( for a trip to the alignment shop ) :-) ---- Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
