The 'E' Type Forum

Hi folks I am in the process of stripping down my IRS and have noticed that there is slight rubbing on the top of it where it appears to hit the bump strip. I was wondering if this is a sign that the shocks or the spings are in need of replacement? Or could it be something else

I am currently trying to work out if I can remove the wiper mechanism in one go complete through the 4' hole in the the dash or do I have to break it all down piecemeal?
