do u need to compress the springs before you put them in. what if u juss throw them on without compress it. is that why the ride is more rough? H&R RACE

 

ok.

1. Speak english.
2. Not compressing the springs during installation will only affect installation time.
3. Your ride is rougher because you have a spring with a higher spring rate.

2.you can take off the spring withouth the compressor but the cap will shot 50 feet in the air. Well, hopefully no one will get killed.
3.you are very likely to kill your shock in less than a month.

 

you usually don't need to compress aftermarket springs when installing them because they're short enough... but removing them, you'll need to compress your factory ones.

Ah, I was only thinking about installation. Yes, you might want a compressor for disassembling the stock suspension.

My friends and I never use them, though. We just shoot the perch and nut into the garage wall. Works fine, but is dumb nonetheless.

yeah.. we just use an impact gun and let it shoot out into some padding, but i would never advise it since there can be serious injury to those who don't know what they're doing..
