Question: / find II difficult TO

Answer: Positive fabrication Of
springs may be secured by lacking
up the chassis and applying lubrlcat-
ing oil while the springs are thus re.
lieyed Of their weight. In this cond.
ton the spring leaves should open
slightly in n fan shape. 1t may be
necessary to spread the leaves a
trifle with - screwdriver. knife or
thin strip Of metal. a few mlnutes'
work with q squirt gun filled with

ton between the leaves.
Sometimes a spring is rusted to the
extent that It becomes frozen" in
a rigid mass. The only remedy Is
20 take II apart, wash each leaf with
Kerosene and replncc, inserting a
heavy piece of wrapping paper thor.
oily saturated with a good grade of
graphite grease between each leaf.
Apply engine oil freely. II is good
plan to paint the spring leaves with
oil. Tho oil will work down between
the leaves.
A spring will break because of the
expansion which follows n heavy
compression. and not during the com.

your springs.
There are many spring lubricants
which you Gun purchase for n small
sum. Try painting the outer sur

Question: What Is the best meth.
od for lubricating the rear axles Of
my car?
Answer. The rear axles are gem
orally fabricated from the differential
housing. In this case, the differen.
tiaI lubricant flows along the aIles
thru the rear housing and to the
wheel bearings.
The lubricant In the bearings is
held in by felt washers. Occasionally
leakage results, due to the hardening
Of the oil in these washers. IL is
important, therefore, that the wheels
be removed for inspection once or
twice season and new washers re.
place the old ones II necessary.
There are many cars fitted with
plugs in the wheel hubs for bearing
fabrication. Grease should be forced
into the hub Of this type Of car every
thousand miles.
The leakage OF grease about the
hub flanges Of a full floating axle
can be stopped by making gaskct
OF common wrapping paper and IN.
sorting It between the flange and the
wheel.
You can easily make your own
gasket after removing the fIangc by
laying the wrapping paper On the
