    Lol, my neighbor just got home today from a week long trip down there. He rented a Harley and cruised around down from Miami to Key West, did some charter fishing, airboat rides and lots of drinking. He’s not to thrilled about it supposedly being 12* on Monday.

    I just got home on Monday from 10 days in St. Maarten, the coldest it got overnight while there was 77*. It's cold as crap here now but I do enjoy not sweating for 16 hours a day.

    Who needs a spring compressor when you have a hi-lift? Im pretty sure beer and hi-lifts don't go together, and might even say something about it in the owner's manual. :evil: :drunk:
    :gossip: Im pretty sure they don't come with one. :D

    So hold my beer and check this out. Hi-lift jack use #1472: a coil spring compressor. :devil:

    Does the "undo the UCA ball joint and then drop everything so you can slide the unassembled coilover in and bolt it to the LCA and then use a floor jack under the LCA and compress it that way" method not work on those cars?

    Well that's just a little terrifying... but also pretty rad lol

    After swapping out a handful of coils with manual compressors and air tools I figured my odds of one flying off and taking out my balls was getting up there so I stopped :rofl:
