Tried shortening a spring compressor the first time I removed my springs and had a hell of a time still. I came up with an idea to remove the spring and A-arm together and was so much easier to do and you won't have to cut up a perfectly good spring compressor. What do you guys think??

 

sorry....here's the money shot!!

 

Done that i still just prefer to compress it then let the a-arm down specially if you dont want to take the a-arm off. Alot of aftermarket springs you dont have to compress at all just let the a-arm down and they will fall out.

 

Thats a pretty cool idea. I may have to try that as my springs need about 1 1/2 coils cut. I have been procrastinating it cause the spring compressor is such a pain. Thanks for sharing.

 

right this is specificly for stock springs, once I put in my Sportlines I won't have much use for it.

 

umm, that looks just like the spring compressor i rent from autozone (for free) when i have to pull my springs......
