I've lost count of all the spring changes I did and not once did the nut do anything more than simply fall off the spring. I've never had to use a compressor to change 7thgen springs. Have fun Shiftromatic.....wanna help me install some brake rotors and pads?
how can you be sued? Your are not a professional and the consideration($) will certainly be less than that of a professional and therefore the courts would say that b/c the level of consideration was not up to a professional then the job could not be expected to be that of a professional. Thats my opinion anyway.
