Re: Spring Compression

I only used the spring compressor when taking my stock springs off. I didnt need it to put my other ones on. But it may be different with yours. Just have it just in case.

Re: Spring Compression

Re: Spring Compression

Spring compressor is not necessary. I have swapped the suspension on a few civics. Once the you fully undo the nut on the top the plate just falls.
