Looking to install springs on my G37 sedan soon. I have everything needed except an air compressor which isnt really needed and I'd need to rent the spring compressor.

Pretty sure I can do it myself but am always super careful when it comes to suspension and brakes but havent worked on anything this new so I'd like some assistance from someone who knows what theyre doing.

I'm in Freehold, NJ 07728 -- I have a garage and am happy to feed you and beer you and throw you some bucks and ?

Flexible on when it can be done but sooner the better.

PM me and thanks in advance!

go to an autoparts store and buy a spring compressor... they're not too expensive, you'll use it many times I'm sure. I know I have. Or you can do it the foot and brute strength way.... Foot on the shock/strut/spring while laid on the ground and pop the top hat, find all parts, put new spring on, have a buddy push as hard as he possibly can while your tighten the top hat back on. Good times man, good times... lol
