installing springs in truck w/o motor
OK, so I've run a bunch of searches on this subject.
As my truck (70 C10) is blocking my garage and I need to get things in and out of it, I really need to make it roll more easily, so I want to install the front wheels which require me somehow getting the springs installed. I don't have the engine in. It seems spring compressors are pretty dangerous/don't work all that well depending on what you get. And, based on my studying the front end, it also seems like an internal compressor may be somewhat difficult to get out depending on design. With that said, my next plan of action was trying to load up the front end. I'd install the engine, but it's completely apart. Would putting the block and the heads down on the front end give enough weight or still not enough? How about block, heads, a person standing on it? haha. It's a 402. In any event, open to suggestions. |
