Default Re: front spring

It is possible to fit the front sprig without a spreader. Use the weight of the car and some blocks of wood under the end of the spring to flatten it till the shackle pin can be put in. That said, a spreader is easier but just another tool you're not likely to ever need again. Maybe you could borrow one.
