Cheers Nico Mate!
That’ll be the plan x 4 all needed once every tyre shop in Australia reopens next week now damn it [emoji23]
Unfortunately myself and many other locals have been issued council fine warning letters to get under 100mm paddocks before midnight tonight. Every other year I personally do our smaller freehold parcel between 26th <> 30th December once finished work for the year.
Maybe I should send them a letter demanding their 1.0m roadsides grass heights be considered throughout the entire region [emoji23]

Hey Mark. I have a collection of larger Vulcanising Patches I carry when remote Touring. Size of thr palm of your hand. Great for patching tyres from the inside, especially those tyres that don't have a speed rating. If you get desperate yell out mate.Quote:

Couldn’t help myself, had to borrow the girls 18v whipper snipper with the newly acquired add on hedge trimmer attachment, amazing contraption [emoji106]
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...020/12/186.jpg
Smashed out the front hedge, all three sides approximately 30m long only using 25% of a 12.0AH battery [emoji106][emoji106]

I so need this at home. The neighbors hedge trees are towering over next to the pool and I can’t reach the upper sections. Wonder if I can get this attachment for my whipper snippet.Quote:

I’d say this hedge trimmer attachment would max out at about 8-10mm thick woody “trees” though as it took a bit of encouragement on the ends where I hacked it right back a bit too deep.

Well that is shit mate, s that fence 1 piece or Two? Surely it is 2 and it can me realigned? if it is 1 then how did this happen? If you need to use this and cant adjsut t to realign it then ut another fence on the front of it and pack it our mate. Re-fence it in a single piece with packers then cut the fence with the blade and you will get the job done no worries.Quote:

Bustards of things. Why do you need these Phil? I xan swap out 5" springs without them? Not sure why you need them mate?Quote:

I have limited headroom also with a garage door that covers half the car body and i have perhaps 40mm clearance between roofrack and garage door. Its not about trying to compress the spring, just maintain a shortened length.
Jack the chassis up, remove the wheels, drop the axle on the deck mate. You should have plenty of room.Quote:

Why were they invented then Legends?
Honestly learning here too!

Darren, there was no next spring, it was the same spring going straight back in. I don't have the head room to jack the vehicle any higher. i accept what you are saying, but it just does not relate to the circumstances I was working with. I made some basic errors when doing this task, as follows - The biggest issue I have with the spring compressor is the stored energy that is magnifying as the coil is compressed, and that energy is not really apparent as the coil compresses until you start to see the threaded bar bending. Its is a very dangerous bit of kit for sure, especially if used without regard to the danger, but it can serve a purpose.
ERROR 1 -For the record I did remove the coil compressor once the coil was out of the car simply to re-align the clamps to 180 deg.for a better more level compression across the coil. This is where I came unstuck as I obviously over tightened the coil, despite measuring it in its compressed state.
ERROR 2 - When I went to release the coil, I also should have ensured the full weight of the vehicle was on it, like when it was removed - as the coil compressor was taking more load than original as it was still under single compression from the coil compressor, not the vehicle.
Your points are valid, just not workable for me at that time. If i was doing it without the overhead limits i could have easily jacked the vehicle higher and dropped the axle down a bit further - it was sitting on a trolley jack fully down anyway.
@MB They are used a lot when changing shocks in road cars due to them being coilover shock absorbers. You need to compress the spring before undoing the top cap. Remove shock, fit new shock with compressed spring and reinstall top cap. Then release spring compressors. Nearly all road cars that are around use this system..
Understand Now, Cheers Mat! [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
