    What are the best COIL spring compressor to use for a 1998 Tacoma 2.4l,I went to auto zone and took my new SPRINGS to see what worked and they didn't seem to have one that worked so now I'm trying to order one off of amazon.any suggestions?and as to removing a control ARM upper, I noticed under the bolts where it makes contact with the actual frame it has like these Shims that I can only assume were used for alignment and to compensate to be straight,any word?
