Front Spring Removal
So, I am almost ready to sandblast and paint my frame, rear-end etc. BUT!
When I took the truck apart, I rolled the front end out as a unit. So what is my best option now for removing the front springs? Now that I no longer have the truck's weight, I cannot use the floor jack method. Do I need to buy some kind of a compressing tool or are there alternatives? ![]()

Re: Front Spring Removal
You won't have to necessarily buy a compression tool.
A lot of auto parts stores will let you rent or borrow one.
