Im going to be pulling my suspension apart in the coming weeks and need to disassemble my coilovers. I have seen some videos where the person has used the spring compressors that you tighten the bolts and I have also read people say to take it to a shop to get them to disassemble them for me.

Suggestions?

Take them to a shop please
Here is the thing, you maybe able to compress the stock ones since they are just 310 lb and if used any even weaker
BUT try to compress a 400 lb spring and it takes a lot,
much easier and safer to have the shop do them
