You need to go rent a spring compressor, that way you can get everything bolted up and let the spring expand strait.


EDIT also I slid it in from the back and didnt mess with the balljoints

 

I've got several different types of compressors. I normally don't ever need it, Ill try putting it in from the backside. I always go thru the front and it works... I guess a longer spring needs a different approach . I'm looking for a set of spindles right now too...

 

Yea the chevys are so low from the factory that just adding the 2" spacer makes them pretty much impossible to go back in without compressing the spring...(found out half way through) I've seen a dodge truck put the spacer on, spring slid right in and jacked up...

 

Slapped them in along with the 2" blocks and it looks MUCH better. I really think the spindles and 4" blocks would look PERFECT

 

Where's the pics man?

 

Glad to hear it. If it kicked your *** a 2 time I was going to start to wonder about ya man

 

I dont know what I was doing wrong Friday night. Maybe the fact that it was 2-3am LOL... I had the front and rear both done in an hour and a half after work yesterday I'll get er cleaned up and snap a couple pics today or tomorrow I'm enjoying it though.

 

Im lookin to lift up my front end on my white silvy with coil spacers soon, whats the easiest way to get them in, Im probally going to go with the aluminum 2" suspension max spacers, any help would be appreciated. Ive never messed with springs...

 

I wish mine was still lifted. I hate mine lowered right now.

 

where are pics?
