So does anyone know why it is this shape?

It's obviously not to clear anything.....clutching at straws here but is it to compensate for the Watts link being off centre?

Awesome! Thank you!

I really appreciate all the help, after parking the car in October it may now be roadworthy again in a couple of weeks

So.......now I have the rear axle free I noticed something odd with my rear sway bar. Is the stock bar supposed to be asymmetrical? It seems quite severe if it was caused by damage, especially as noting else looks problematic. As per the images below - notice how one side is flat and the other has a...

Yes, I was nervous about using the hammer but after I found a picture of the assembly I understood how it had to come out. Just and an FYI, i managed to get a full set of new hand brake cables and all new hardware (springs, retaining clips etc etc) for the rear drums from RockAuto. It's amazing the ...

WooHoo!!! 0-0 I got them off! So the narrow "ring" you see where the crimped cable sleeve goes into the back of the drum - the slot used to contain a clip that held the cable in place. Mine was missing but is was all still held tight by rust. After a lot of PB Blaster/Deep Creep soaking an...

OK, thank you, funny how neither one points that way....I guess you really never know what previous owners or other mechanics have done beofre you get a car!

So just to clarify, the lettering is as per the attached picture? If so then I should be making sure that both sides point to the same direction, by the sounds of things both to B or both to A. Wonder how mine ended up one at B the other at D?? I guess i will rotate the one at position D to position...

So dumb question - is the other side (drivers in the UK) the mirror of this diagram? I am now worried that mine are pointing to different letters ...my UK passenger side points to D (forwards and away from engine) but the drivers side points to B (backwards and towards engine), so 180 from each othe...
