And do not try to use the jack on the lower arm to line things up until you have the whole front end off the ground.

If you can't figure out how to get the car completely in the air, take the car to someone more capable to get these springs installed.

You're going to hurt yourself.

:iagree:

Thanks guys. Is it normal to compress front swift springs onto strut? I had to compress my swift to put on tophats

Yes, compressing the springs is necessary unless the new springs are drastically shorter than OEM.

:facepalm:

It's also not a strut.

you....might want to read up a bit more on springs.

Now should be when you call one of your buddies who has done this sort of job before. Having your front end disassemble itself at speed could get you or someone else hurt or killed.

Im new to nissan scene , im used to slow hondas

This issue you're having isn't brand specific.

Ive done it before on hondas just not nissan.

While only jacking up one side of the vehicle?

:ugh:

i doubt that... unless you're talking about a bike or something with no torsion bar. lol
