lowering a honda....anyone use a spring compressor?
lowering my car today, and was thinking that the first time i did this i used a spring compressor and it was a bitch. when i did it in the Integra i used an impact gun and the grass in my yard to cetch the shock ::)
tried a semi-new technique today..i left the combo in the car and just removed the shock nut and let the fucker fire :y lol dont think the control arm liked it too much... |

1 foot on the spring.
1 finger on the impact wrench. Watch her fly |
Re: lowering a honda....anyone use a spring compressor?
I just dropped the whole shock and spring out and didn't even mess with it since i have new shocks and coils and another set of top hats for them :P

I hate spring compressors, it never seems that the end part ever wants to fit between the coils. It especially sucks if you have to wrench on that bitch without an impact gun.

my buddy broke his arm with one of those auto zone rental spring compressors. take it to a shop and spend the $150.
