In my readings of various posts is my thinking correct that I can remove the rear shock and the spring comes with it? No having to put any safe guards anywhere??? Then I can compress the spring and remove it from the shock? I figure I'll just remove the whole thing since I'm puting a sway bar on the rear so the bottom of the shock will be loose anyway... (I think) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Maybe I should RTFM? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
