Help installing front lowering springs

you can take the spring out without the compressor, just lower with the jack, its not going to pop out at you. you can push the A-Arm all the way down and just kick the spring out, the new springs should go in a lot easier than the old springs for obvious reasons.

Hmmm...... I had the car up on 4 jack stand whenI did mine way back when. I put a floor jack underneath the control arm, when I went to lower it, it didn't release the spring all the way. I pulled the floor jack out of the way, put a spring compressor on it, and basically stood on the control arm, and the spring came right out. A spring compressor is VERY useful when it comes to that kind of stuff. However, the ain't gonna pop out and cut your legs off, so just try standing on the control arm. Then get a buddy to pull it out. Hope this helps.

dident use a spring compressor when we did mine either. The 94/95s are pretty good about not needing to use one, the foxes on the other hand are a diffrent story.
