When I change springs I use both the hi-lift and a trolley jack and put it in low diff locked and chock the wheels.
Support the axle with the trolley jack, take off the wheel, jack up the chassis with hi-lift, lower the axle with the trolly jack until there's a big enough space to put the spring in.

Thank you Stephen, I fear that would be a tad hefty
However I do recall a thread on the old forum, where additionally reinforced tanks that were available were discussed as well as people who were galvanising tanks.
What about tank guards ? Do you use one ? Is it any good ?
Come along don't be shy, post up

Excellent article Les, although having done similar myself, I'd now go down the engine out, fix, engine back in route, which again is about 6 hours work.

The time has come to replace the 90s fuel tank, hastened in it's demise by an exmoor tree stump.
Are 90 fuel tanks available galvanised and strengthened underneath ?
