48oldsguy Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) If you have a floor jack you can wire the spring to the floor jack and expand the spring enough to stuff large washer between each coil than release the jack and the spring will remain stretched for easy mounting in the car. When you have it connected to your hood spring mounting brackets, remove the washers with a pair of pliers, with the washers out the spring will collapse with tension restored. For new springs go to Fucsick. Edited January 18, 2019 by 48oldsguy typo (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
