Help cutting Moroso trick springs please

Thanks Clark. Your car looks very nice.

Sounds like about 3/4 is the starting point.

Thanks Ken.
One suggestion, if possible, contact any local shops that manufacture springs and see if they will professionally compress and band the springs.
Even with 3/4 coil cut, it took the compressor, and 2 large pry bars to get them into position.

That K-D J hook tool allows you to compress any coil spring enough to install it with ease. You can compress one straight or stagger the hooks and arc the spring a little just like they sit in many cars.

I installed many springs and did it with NO spring compressor a lot. At one time back in the early 70's.......lots of guys jacked their cars up higher for the street as it was the "cool thing to do" . I used to have to resort to all kinds of tricks to get them in......I would have a car on a center post lift and put a jack stand under the opposite rear corner from the front where I was trying to get a stiffer than stock spring in......Car would be nose down on that front trying to get enough weight on there and me struggling with a tire bar to get the nut on the upper ball joint.......Never had one I didn't get in there but it was no picnic.....The j-hook tool was a big improvement. I still have it in my toolbox...
