Regarding front springs
Diagnosis was correct with a sagging right front spring being the cause of the Chassis lean.
Went out to Hillston on the weekend to consult with the great fountain of Ford knowledge, John Mackie. We came away with a lot more questions than answers however...it seems that every different model of Ford of the era had a spring of different length and width. Firstly, here are the specs from the repair workshop manual. Second photo shows Khaki 2wd spring and Rusty 4wd spring. As you can see from specifications it cant be used as it is not wide enough. Third photo shows why I cant use passenger side spring either... Third and Fourth photo confirms widths of springs

Cause of Spring sag
Shock absorber connecting rod was missing this side. But after getting a piece of rod threaded it is now back in place.
Just need two front leaf springs - has anyone got any spare???

springs
possible to rebuild and set up as you want, old springs may also be different heights. they can soften or adjust to your needs, the c & f 15s always ride a lot softer than 15As.
