Is there a way to remove and replace the front coils without using the special
tool shown in bentley? If tool is necessary, where can it be obtained /
rented? Any homemade tool designs? One friend tells me he has used bailing
twine to wrap up spring when in preloaded position, then cut twine upon re-
installation, but this will not work for me as I'm sending springs out to be
retempered.
