Without a compressor, I believe that some people jack the car up, let the wheel hang down (to partially relieve the springs pressure). Place a jack underneath the wishbone to take the load, carefully remove the inner bolt(s) and then gradually lower the jack. I have heard good/bad things about this method - appararantly not as dangerous as once thought as the spring is nearly fully un-compressed once the wheel is hanging down after jacking that corner of the car up. But consider all risks/complications yourself IMHO - I've never done it this way and it's only going on what I've read. All at your own risk (but it should be fine IMHO) Will |
