Ok after several busted knuckles and a few cases of beer :eek:ccasion14: I finally got my new control arms on!!!!! Thanks to everyone who offered advice and to anyone wanting to do it themselves in the future, it is possible to get the spring back in without using a compressor at all. The key it height! Make sure that your car is jacked high enough for the control arm to hang straight down almost and you'll need about a 36" prybar and a 24" prybar as well as a ton of patience. It can be done and you will certainly appreciate the difference that they 03 Cobra arms make in the steering and overall handling of your SN95. Thanks again everyone this forum got me through it!

Tip for everyone:

WD40, spray for a few days, it will make a huge difference.

They are defintely one of the best mods I've done. I have been in and out with springs and have been able to do it with out a compressor as well. Congrats and the install.
