Just recieved my HD Bilsteins in the mail, I was under the impression that I could remove/install the springs by simply applying some pressure but cannot seem to get it to work. This has me wondering if I have stock springs.
Is there any guide to the color coated paint on the springs? The are black with hand painted green stripes. Thanks, Dan |

Do they have the adjustable spring perch? If so they may be adjusted such that they have a preload. Get a cheap spring comoressor from harbor freight. Not a wonderful tool, but good enough for that job. I'm pretty sure black with stripes is stock. (the factory painted the stripes for spring matching)
