CFH87 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 I've got all new springs and the bottom 2 don't seem to fit. Was wondering where I could get a longer spring thats the only thing holding my build up now... That and a shit ton of math homework to catch up on lol Quote

papa_smurf49319 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 you have to pull pretty good, i can usually do it with needle nose, but sometimes i use small vice grips! Quote
dirtydownunder Posted September 12, 2011 Report Posted September 12, 2011 they fit, my only prob was that my old ones, the hooks bent, so they only just held. i got new ones from Wildcard. i get a skinny screwdriver and hold it side ways in both hands (handle in one hand and tip in the other, hold it like youd strangle some one from behind haha) place the spring hook in the middle of the s/driver and pull or push the spring onto the pipe with both hands.

Jereme6655 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 there is an easier way.....and it involves a screwdriver. Get a medium thickness phillips screwdrive about 8" long. then place the spring on the shaft near the handle.....place the phillips end in the hoop and then just use leverage to tighten the spring......when you apply enough force it will force the spring to slide down the screwdriver shaft and will either snap right into place or it will hang the end of it on the spring hoop allowing you to just click it the rest of the way in...

CFH87 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Posted September 13, 2011 The right side has a good gap for the left I would have to use 8 or more washers. Quote

Ya something doesn't seem right, what hangers are you using? Like I said I'm using cascade hangers and my pipes didn't need any shimming. Maybe you might wanna give matt a holler or whoever you got the pipes from if all else fails. Quote
CFH87 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Posted September 14, 2011 I've got stock hangers for mine I'm wondering how they would affect fit? Quote
