On my '86, I planned on changing the struts out when I did the brake upgrade to the 87-93 rotors and spindles.
If I place a jack under the front control arm then unbolt the strut from the spindle, can I release the jack from under the control arm to get the old spindle off of the control arm or will the spring shoot out under pressure?
I wanted to replace the front springs, but after reading what a pain in the arse it seems to be, I'd rather just not. I actually have new springs here but not lowering ones, they are new stock long ones.
Also, how hard would it be to replace the struts? Can I just unbolt them from the spindle, then unbolt them from the top of the strut tower in the car?
Sorry for the newbie questions, I am better at drivetrain stuff than suspension stuff.
