TRW Rear Spring
I've got a TRW spring on the rear of my '76 that's about 20 years old. I noticed that the ride height has dropped an inch or so and that I've been bottoming out in the rear. Do these composite monosprings wear out or can I just raise the rear by raising the spring bolts on each end to get me back inlto specs with ride height and eliminate the bottoming out?

I started looking into a TRW spring because they were so cheap on Ebay. I came to find out why. The TRW spring was know for just snapping with no warning, and there you would sit on the side of a road with a buster rear spring. I wasn't keen on that and now I understand why they were so much cheaper than any other brand.
