Ransomes Anglia Mk1 14"

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

My first attempt at a mower restoration.  Stuck on "adjusting springs"  I do not have the old original ones. The Mk 5 list of parts indicates there should be two, but I appear to have recesses for 4 (2 each side)  Can anybody help with 1) pictures of the adjusting springs in the mower (either end of blade) 2) dimensions of the springs 3) even better the actual springs for me to try and source / copy or possibly does anybody have an Anglia being broken up, where I can salvage the springs. Thank you Alan Birch

Hi Alan, restoring my mk 3, 2 springs either end. 

Photo of spring around 32mm long, 13mm outside diameter, should be fairly easy to get replacements from motor factors or even engineering shops and online spring suppliers. Hope this helps. Lee
