⚙️ Usage Instructions

For Straight Coil Springs:

Setup: Evenly position the three leg assemblies around the spring and finger-tighten the nuts to secure.

Attachment: Place one U-bolt near the centre of each leg, ensuring the open end faces away from the spring. Attach the bar and wing nuts, then tighten lightly.

Compression: Gradually tighten each leg nut evenly to compress the spring—avoid over-compressing.

Release: Loosen the leg nuts evenly to safely release the spring tension.

For Curved Coil Springs:

Preparation: Safely raise the vehicle and support it. Place a jack under the lower control arm to compress the spring.

Installation: Attach as many leg assemblies and U-bolts as possible, tightening them finger-tight.

Removal: Carefully disconnect the lower control arm bolts and lower the jack slowly until the spring can be safely removed.

New Spring Installation: Use one or more legs and U-bolts to shape and secure the new curved spring into position.
