This is how I do it to disassemble a MacPherson strut assembly without using spring compressors. Compressors are for fools! :)

  • lol, since comments have been disabled on the next video, supposedly showing you how to install without a spring compressor, I'll save you the 45 seconds to tell you, its bullshit. The camera doesn't show anything and it's obviously a shitty joke. But good work on taking them off, that takes a nice set of balls buddy.

  • @wogfun

    Actually the response is not me or anyone I know. I do not need to prove it to you guys, I know that I put it back on without a compressor. I am too lazy to rent a compressor each time, so believe me, I would have used it if I had one. I just didn't. So I never used it to remove nor to replace.

  • how the fuck do you put it back on?

  • @yoDEVONyo Read the reply I had done, but here's a copy/paste: Do you guys honestly think I wasn't able to install it back without a compressor? It's not hard, you get one person to hold down the top plate, and another to put the nut on. Unless you are a 14 year old schoolgirl, anyone can do this.

  • @0xKeWLKaTx0 your fucking full of shit these springs take over 1000nm of force to compress no one is capable of that idiot

  • @atomichurley Hey Mr. Keyboard Engineer, first of all, what do you mean by "nm". If that is N/m, that is not a force unit as you said. That would be a stiffness term. Second of all, 1000 N/m would mean that you need (approx) 100 kg to travel 1 metre of that spring, which, if you think about it is not that stiff at all. So you're the one who's full of it and swinging around words and numbers you are not aware of.

    I know that I am capable of putting them back on.

  • what a dick

  • @0xKeWLKaTx0 ok... try that on a F-150 or E-250, i want to see that ;)

  • @0xKeWLKaTx0 The Newton metre can be abbreviated N m.....only Newton per square meter is N/m

  • @0xKeWLKaTx0 yeah, removing a spring without a proper compressor is all fun and games untill a spring mames your face.

  • A way to kill yourself,the spring is loaded.Called if you don't have the right tools,don't do it.

  • Let's see you put it back together
