Default Need help removing coil spring.

Stock coils under a 1.75" BB.

No problem removing the driver's side coil spring. Easy peasy!

The passenger side however ain't happening. I have it lowered the axle as far as it will go and still I have no room to wiggle it and remove it. Even removing the low perch bump stop does not look like it will help. (I hate to do that as it is a bitch to reinstall!). In fact, I got the driver's side coil off around the bumpstop no problem.

I CANNOT even begin to get a spring compressor in there either.

Any suggestions?

Never mind. I unbolted the steering damper and got just enough more room!
