Now Bernie, have I mentioned that you should replace the u bolts?

Spring joints make them. Carrolls made mine for about $25 each from memory with nuts and washers etc.

Think that’s a little tough George, the other side without a broken spring might be easier to remove? 🤣🤣

Travel safely George & enjoy your Aussie getaway, you’ve been spoilt with getaways this year.😀
