I ordered my second set of spacers from Jeff1997 for my newer ride a 96 5sp tracker. On my 91 it took me 5 hours to install all 4. does anyone know a easy way to install these i was going to get a coil spring compressor but it will not work because of the bump stop. and i used strut spring compressor on my old one. any help would be great, i will be doing this, this weekend in my driveway with air tools, a jack and jack stands.

you can get coil spring compressors that mount externally one on each side of the spring. i picked mine up from princess auto for 20 bucks.

I used one of those on my old tracker and I had a hard time because the compressor would hit the control arm

I guess I am not getting what you are saying

It's a good guide and easy to follow. That's what I used the first time . I have one 5 since then. and did each one faster.

i used a spring compressor the first time i did this.
i just finished increasing the puck size and did it without a compressor. it was much easier than messing with the compressor.
i found the a-arm would drop enough to just stick 'em in.

If you go to the top of this page to the GEAR GUIDE and click on it you will find how to do this and a lot of outher stuff

unbolt the anti-sway bar in front and the wishbone link in rear (and all shocks) should be a 1/2 hour job per end if you do this.

ok so for the front if i undo the sway bar links it will drop enough. will i have to do anything with the cv shaft. also i prolly should put the jack under the control arm and slowly lower it until the spring goes loose

yep, the cv shaft (should) come out pretty easy when the knuckle swings down. and always smart to slowly let it down with a jack.

ok cool when i take the snap ring off of the cv shaft do i take the alen bolts at the knuckle for the hubs

if the c-clips off you dont need to remove the whole hub just slide out the cv

as far as i know i think they are on there never had to replace the shaft just the passanger side lockout

well i got her done thursday only took 3 hours doing it myself.
