<VV> removing front spring

[Marc Sheridan]

Well, the car is back together and it is about an inch lower than it was
after I cut two coils off the original spring. I didn't use the new HD
springs that I had. Actually, I used the new HD springs as a guide. I cut
enough of the old springs so that they were as long as the new HD springs
unweighted. I figured that at equal unloaded length, the standard spring
would compress more than the HD one.

The only problem I had, other than getting the ball joint loose, was not
having the spring seated correctly at the top on the right side, which meant
I got to take it apart again :-).

Thanks to all that replied to my plea for help. It is all much appreciated.
I know I let some of you down by not staying the course and using the evil
pickle fork, but I was getting impatient and the damn thing gets the job
done, even if it does tear the boot :o).
