Coil Spring Installation
Posted by SteveP516 On 2019/3/16 8:40:46
Good Morning All............
I'm looking for some help with the installation the new coil springs on my 1940 1803.
The amount of room on the upper side will not allow for the conventional spring compressor. The spring needs to be compressed about 4" So, I'm looking for some tips or method of how to install without damaging the paint.
I've looked at removing the lower arm and compressing the entire assembly, but that has it's own issues.
Maybe, someone with the experience can shed light on the subject.
Any help greatly appreciated!
