Default Re: Steeda Springs/Compressor Help

If you dont have a spring compressor, I highly recommend PAYING someone to do it for ya. Plus, on some prings, you cannot use the inner spring compressor, as the compressor gets in the way. An outt-spring compressor doesnt fit inside the k-member/frame area so that is difficult to use... Been there, done that, on both. Its not easy nor fun.

The front springs are a LOT of work to get in and out. You will lower the front control arm till its nearly pointing towards 5:00 (nearly straight up/down) to get a spring in there. LOTS of stored energy, so dont just crowbar-them-out, or you might catch a flying spring with your teeth!

IMOHO, rears are easily doable, but fronts I would pay to have them installed.
