Drag Springs


Any ideas on putting them in? I cant get the bottom part wedged in all the way. They are really long, and the spring compressor doesnt do a thing.


Any ideas?

for the rear?
you have the car lifted by the frame not the rear right?
helps to have a buddy hold down one side while you through the spring in. this way the rear kinda see-saws

im assuming you have the shocks off the rear as well right?
