I have a few sets of rear springs from HT/HG but there are 2 different sizes in the front bush of the rear spring (where is sits into spring hanger underneath rear seat)? Why is this so? Thanks.

all HK had small eye at both ends of leaf. that carried over on all commercials.
All HT/G (except ute, van, & bathurst monaro)changed to big front eye bush for a softer ride

I thought V8 HT GTS kept the same springs as HK GTS? (might be wrong, drawing from memory!). And auto HT-HG GTS350 had big eye springs?

I had a quick look last night at what Ben & Warren put in the Monaro book. It says HT V8 GTS (I think manual only) kept the HK GTS rear springs, and then in HG it was only the GTS350 manual. Some late HK got the big eye springs too. The commercials keeping the smaller eye springs is new to me, good info.
