Sphoon A arms Spring fitting question

Hey all. Got a new K member and A arms installed, offerred up the springs to the spring perches and they were too long by far, so I got the spring compressors on them and still it'll never work.

I was thinking of attaching the ball joint then dropping the A-arms by the rear, then fitting the springs and jacking the A-arm up untill i can reinstall the bolts.

Can anyone tell me if this is how to do it?

Cheers
JAmes

Do that and use your spring compressor and it should go together easily. Be sure and index the springs. I also run a chain threw the spring and a-arm and bolt it together. Keeps the spring from flying at you if it decides to pop out.
