I went with a group of mates for a drive around a logging forest in Bala at the weekend. Amazing scenery and fantastic tracks but not for the first time one of our guys got it badly wrong on what looked like a simple track.

Good opportunity to inspect the chassis
That'll buff out
(and other daft comments...)
Short wheel base more prone to that than a LWB I guess....

Does that truck run retained springs in the front or cones?

Just wondering if the OP has an answer for this?

I don't know for sure but it's pretty standard practice to have spring retainers on the UK. Its rarer you find they don't have retainers
