Ron,
The shocks on
the Mantis must be different than on the coupe because there are 'eyes' at both
ends of all my shocks. By the way, I'll hopefully see you on
Sunday.
Regards,
Paul

Subject: RE: [MarcosManiacs] Spring compressor?Don . . .You will definitely need spring compressors - if you didn't, that would mean that springs were so loose at full shock extension that they would flop around and come off the top plate - that would be a mess.Fortunately you can remove the shock/spring unit and work on it on a bench. I found it useful to undo the top "pin" mounting first, then the bottom "eye" mounting.Regards . . . Ron McLeod

Subject: [MarcosManiacs] Spring compressor?
Do I need a spring compressor in order to change my springs and shocks??
I know the spring length is 12" but with the car jacked up is the
extension great enuf to allow removal without a compressor?
