I had the same problem with my 70 vert. found out one of the trailing arms was
stuck. Before I go thru changing all the leafs out, I would remove the spindles
and made sure all 4 trailing arms are free. It only takes one being stuck to
cause all kinds of problems. just because we greased the beam doesn't mean
everything is free to move again. Once the spindles are removed, the trailing
arms should be easy to move up and down.

I did wonder if it could be hung up, but surely driving would have freed it,
right?

Good Choice! Do you think it could have something to do with no grease for
about 20 years??

I found out, for everyone's knowledge base, that the torsion springs up to
'79 are all the same, so Derrick at Wayout is standing by with my replacement
springs, after I tear into, expose, and examine mine.
Stand by for NEWS!
