Replacing the front suspension springs, on LJ70 2.4TD

Start by removing the front shock absorbers (See Step 1 - Front Shock Replacement Tutorial

Once the shocks are removed, the bridge should be low enough to remove the front springs without any effort or spring compressor. Simply pull on the spring to remove it.

If the bridge is not low enough, you can move it further away from the chassis by having someone pry it up with a crowbar, or use a spring compressor (Reverse the procedure to reassembly)

Check that the new spring is compatible

I opted for a riser, so the spring is larger, but the assembly process is the same

Compress the new spring (Not necessary if you are two CF disassembling)

Use suitable spring compressors, tighten gradually on each side and never get in the way of the spring!

Place the new spring in the housing

Gradually unscrew the spring compressors on each side

Reassemble the shock absorber Step 3.4 - Front Shock Replacement Tutorial

To make it easier, do both sides at the same time (Remove both shock absorbers, change both springs, reassemble both shock absorbers)
