If you remove the sump Guard and look under the car facing to the front on the right hand side you will see the 3 pumps in a line on one of them there is a large nut 24mm IIRC remove that and there is the spring you can't go wrong only Nut of that size on the pumps.

To add just let the ARB hang down.

Out of interest, what are the Cerbera's specific symptoms which lead to the spring needing done?

(No alterior motive here, just knowledge building prior to taking delivery of mine)

A worryingly low oil pressure reading on the gauge.

I found it a right st of a job thanks to the chassis upright that's in the way
Once done it made zero diffrance as I'd
Spun a crank bearing game over
When striped it was found that they weren't 360deg oiling and its a 2003 ajp

I knew we'd taken some photos when changing springs, but they're not as useful as I'd thought - however the thread is worth reading

I found a really useful thread with clear photos
Either on here or tvrcc.

Mine was about a 20 psi jump and there was a clear difference in spring length
