Had one spring compressor come off a Cavalier Mk1 front spring (about 35 years ago), whilst trying to get the spring out from under the wheel arch! We all survived. Richard

When this no longer worries you, an accident will not be far away... My D3 Build Thread
First job after uni was as an electronics engineer for Plessey in Christchurch... all the lads I mixed with were software or systems bods, so I was known as Hardware. Then due to the Bolton accent, that became 'Ardware.
Then as my sideline of fixing mates cars for beers etc. Got me better known, it seemed half the site was calling me by it..

Its what the other half were calling you that mattered The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the best of everything they have.
