Javelin Front Spring Removal

I always have the car in the air and the stuff hanging - shouldn't be a real problem. 
The tool shown would be a royal pain because you must pull hard on the spring lower end - pull it OUTWARD hard as you release the compressor to get the spring out. There's no provision on that one for a pivot. 

Note in my picture of Garry's tool that it at least has a pipe it pivots on. You MUST have some way to pivot it. The original has a nice large ball you can lube up to make it easier to pull that spring out with the tension on it. Garry's has the pipe and it does help. Not how I have it positioned to allow me to pull the lower end of the spring out with one hand while cranking on the ratchet on the top with the other to release it.

Yup.

Hey those shock lower nuts are a pain no matter what............. up or down. 

Now that tool looks interesting.................and I don't have to buy it!  May try that one.
