hey i super need your help ASAP i am having a hard time installing back the stock springs.. i am using the spring compressor already but still hard to put it bak..any tips or technicque

 

Have a shop with a big wall mounted compressor do it. The spring compressor is a true pain in the ass if you're trying to get a spring back ON.

What exactly are you having problems with?

 

i compress the stock spring already but im still having a hardtime putting it back...ugghh i think im going to tighten it down more...u r right its truely pain in the ass

 

Are you putting the spring onto the strut or are you having a hard time putting the strut/spring back into the strut tower/LCA?

 

im having a hardtime putting the spring onto the strut...

 

just get real angry and hulk it out....

 

Make sure you extend the compressor as much as you can, meaning try to use the whole range of the spring compressor. And make sure you tighten it up real well. It should work fine. Then If you need more slack, just press down with both your hands on the upper strut mount and have someone tighten the bolt.

 

Tip: Put the spring compressors as wide as possible on the coils, then compress it completely, then pull the shock as long as you can (They won't return from compressed position when they are worn), pop the spring on and put the nut on the top of the strut as fast as you can so it won't get a chance to retract again.

 

wow the back ones should be the easier ones. I had a hard time doing the front ones. The back ones were a cake walk.

 

shiet man i was a superman when i did this shyt but then another problem was you know that the spring compressor that i rented @ autozone.. that bytch wont come off on the spring it get stuck...i dont have enough space to get the comp out of the spring. i did all my best on this shiet, extend all the way, push down the upper strut mount. but yea i am going to get another shot by pulling the shock as long as i can...this shiet is harder than lowering my FG2
