Coil spring help?

Is there anyone in SoCal with a wall mounted coil spring compressor that would be willing to help a brother out?

I bought some 5100's off another member, but they are set on the 2.5 clip. I want to lower it to 1.75.

Hit me up via pm. I have beer to kick in!

Thanks in advance.

 

Use your Taco as the spring compressor. Review these youtube videos.

Yeah, I thought about that, but if I have them already assembled they go in much easier.

 

x2 on the method stated above. I did this and it was EXTREMELY easy. Even easier than having them fully assembled IMO. We installed fully assembled ones on my buddys truck, and getting the LCA down far enough was a pain. With the above method, the LCA is loosened up so it's not an issue at all. All you need is a second set of hands and a nice floor jack.

 

Hey EST, I grew some balls and used the floor jack spring compressor method. I did the full front install by myself in three hours for both sides. It was easy as hell. You guys were spot on by suggesting that method.

 

Hell yeah!! That's what I love to hear. So glad it worked out for you

 

I'll drop some before and after shots tonight

 

Booyah!

 

Looks damn good! I'm a sucker for MGM and the oem roof rack. Just love the way they look.

 

Thanks! I'm happy with the look.

Last thing will probably be a light bar. The tires will happen when the current ones wear out.

 

I had a 30" in my lower valence and it fit like a charm. I got a bunch of compliments. definitely recommend it!!
