Another pic of the gap and him coming at me w/ the wrench....

Me.. compressed springs are freaking crazy... after the first two, we decided to throw the spring in the street instead of doing it ourselves.


Just a pic of the car in process

Both of our cars the next day.

nice pics....im not really sure how you de-compressed those springs but it looks pretty damn scary. if you did it the way i think you did it, youre lucky it didnt fly off and hit you in the face, or the nuts or something. i knew a guy who had one hit him in the face, and he had to have re-constructive facial surgery on the orbit of his eye, completely smashed it in. those things are nucking futs!!

I was feeling the same way when I saw the pic of the spring too. Youre supposed to use 2 compressors not one. But hey its you thats gonna get screwed up not me. Nice pics of the drop tho.

daym,.. f-word Autozone .. fuckers didnt tell me about using two.. but I should have noticed the Haynes Manual uses two too. Oh well, next time I will know better. We had the compressed springs pointed sideways the whole time so there was no other direction they could really go except sideways. Thanks for the info...
