Default Re: 59 AB engine rebuild

Hi Mac, it would be much easier getting the locks out if you had "straight" fingers on the spring compressor!

Without the correct fingers it's difficult getting the angle with the tool to grab the springs up high!

Thanks, Gary in N.Y.

P.S. Here's a shot of the springs being compressed, actually takes only about 5 or 10 minutes or so to get all the locks out. Of course the air-operated compressor makes it a little easier also!
