Spring Compressor

[YOYOYO]

My skunk 2 coilovers just came in today and I went out and got a spring compressor. I tried the compressors on the skunk 2 coilovers and they dont fit. I was wondering if the stock springs are bigger than the coilovers? Also, I got the only spring compressors taht were there so idk what I would do.

lol all you need the spring compressor for is to take the old springs off...The lowering springs/coil springs don't need to be compressed.

Then why the hell are you trying to compress the coilovers?

I just wanted to see if the hooks fit i did not tighten it. Dumbass. I tried and it works on the stock ones

Spring Compressors are for ladies I never used one, just let the bitch fly off, not a smart thing to do, but it makes for a good time lol!

WHY are you doing it...I realize WHAT you are doing, but there is absolutely NO point in trying to compress a lowering spring. It will fit just fine without it. Compressing springs is not smart just to play around with. Should the compressor fail, it's bad news.

I was not tring to compress it, I was just making sure it was the right kind of compressor to get. Jesus. Since im too much of a wuss to slowly decompress it after its off the shock, I just go in my back yard and throw it and the compressors pop off and its pretty fun
