? It’s easy as hell to do . What wasn’t fun ?
It was the first time working on the truck - bigger hardware I guess. That and getting the springs on/off with my spring compressor (that ended up breaking). That's shady AF lol. Ended up taking them to a shop in town to get the springs back on the new struts. Other than that, it wasn't all that bad. I guess just the spring compressor failing on me gives me bad thoughts lol.

That can be scary. Hope you didn’t get hit or injured by the spring compressor breaking. Doing that job always makes me nervous. Nice when you get a good solid grip and everything torques down nice and even though. Pops right out.

Gotcha yea the springs are kinda tiny so most spring compressors barely hang on. You gotta good point there .
