Will these work to install lowering springs? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I want to buy lowering springs and install them myself to save money, but i have never done a set before. I understand you need spring compressors, my question is will these work for a DIY on jack stands? Are there any other tools needed for these to function? Thanks!!

don't do it, spend the extra cash for proper lower drop.

What do you mean? Lowering springs isn't a proper drop? I have Pfadt springs in mind

Here is another option for you. Go to advance auto and borrow a set from them for free. This is what I did and had no issues. The ones in the auction will work just fine also. All you need is a jack and a couple of jack stands. Very simple install.
