Re: Answer this quick (for the people who have switched from aftermarket springs)
[quote author=08mazda2.0 link=topic=134912.msg2903390#msg2903390 date=1233452616]
i have changed springs my self. I installed my skunk2's that i had before but i was taking off the stock springs which required a spring compressor. To put the skunk2's on the strut we didn't need a spring compressor.
I thought about doing it without a spring compressor by taking the strut and pointing it towards the grass and taking the spring off but i was scared that the strut might pop up in the air and hit me or some shit while the top part of the strut is on the grass and spring is laying the grass and me on the floor bitching lol.

for one, you do know that just as the spring goes one way, the strut will go the other.
for two, you have any idea how much pressure that spring is under? please go rent the right tools and do the job right. rent it. use it. return it. no money spent.
