Did you use a standard spring compressor the way pictured here?
Works good on just about any car. Remove the top hook block and only use the threaded bottom block. Slide the shaft through the shock hole and screw on the block and hooks. Simply slide the spring over the tool and use the top shock mount to compress the spring. Took me about 5 min. per side.

I just completed the 5lug spindle change over and front suspension change on ours. Isnt it a blast putting the coil springs back in?? I thought it was miserable. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Hemicolt</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Fronts are 15 x 4.5 wide. Tires are Pro Trac 560/15.
