How to get the spring in to the front suspension?
Is a spring compressor the best way in this case? Ive got a front end that I am rebuilding and I finally have the control arms in and was about to install the coil and spindle but Im having a clearance issue. Ive seen videos where the coil is placed in and a floor jack is used, but Ive got the jack stands pretty high and I dont think Ill be able to use the floor jack method. I rented a spring compressor but the tool looks like it will be too tall once installed to even get it in and removed afterwards. I saw in the manual where it shows a different tool, I guess that the safest and only way at this point? Im really nervous about having this frame jacked up any higher to get clearance. Thoughts?
