gday

have pulled the front end out of the lx and was wondering how you go about removing the springs safely? i have thought about spring compressors but it doesnt look like they will fit? or am i wrong?
i have also heard of doing it whilst the front end is in the car and using a jack to support the control arm and going from there?

whats the best and easiest way?


cheers toryman76

Now that the front end is out you will need a spring compressor.
