C-30 Frt spring removal
Howdy men,
Finally getting to rebuilding the frt end of my 83 C-30, and am a little concerned about the power of these frt springs. I've done a few passenger cars with the typical "J" style spring compressor thru the shock hole in the lower A-frame, and the jack under it. But my worries are how much stronger are the 1 ton springs with my passenger car compressor? The manual shows a special tool that looks like nothing more than a cradle under the lower A-frame shaft, along with the floor jack. But no spring compressor.
Will it be safe enuff to put a chain thru the spring, and a floor jack under the lower A-frame, as I split the lower ball joint? Any advice is appreciated.
Old habits, die hard.
