    You can do it all with just a floor jack, I've done it twice.

    You don't even have to take the shock off the truck if you're going to replace springs

    lol .. well first time I did it, I was skeptical. 2nd time I did it, it wasn't bad. And after having used a coil compressor, I think the floor jack method is a lot safer.

    Eh. I'll just send the shocks and new coils over to a shop with Amy. It'll give me time to get the UCAs swapped.

    When I did mine, I had zero trust in the cheap spring compressors, although I had not seen the floor jack method, so took them off and ran them to a shop, an hour later plus $60 and was done. While they worked on the springs, I changed out the rear shocks. For me, well worth the $60 for something I do very rarely.

    Yeah. That's what my method of thinking was. Plus if Amy was unable to do it, it's only about a 4 mile bike ride.
