Not saying i would recommend it, but my buddy and I lowered my jeep without a spring compressor. It really didn't seem like the springs were under too much pressure, they only popped out about 2 inches once the bolt was removed.


Nevermind, I should have clicked on the link first, i thought it was a spring compressor tool. I would swap out the springs if you want to lower it.

Yeah, those seem really sketchy. At first I thought I was looking at spring compressors to remove the springs, then realized you're supposed to leave those in?! lol crazy!

Ha ha...thanks for the feedback everyone. I thought it was crazy too. Obviously 3" is a pretty intense drop anyway but just to imagine that shoved in a space made to be comfortable without the extra hardware, probably not a good idea nor safe!! I just wanted to see if anyone here had heard of these crazy things.
