Yes I know do a search,read the old posts,well I have done that and I have read the work shop story but I still cant make the front spring leave home.I got some compressores but they dont work,the engine is out so there is no weight on the front.The biggest prob seems to be I cant get the top or bottom ball joints apart,tryed whacking with hammer,and ball joint seperator,so any advise?

Hit the upper ball joint with CRC then get a bigger hammer and whack the knuckle, not the ball joint..if this doesn't work then you're not trying hard enough!

What do you mean the compressors dont work? Dont get really cheap ones, they wont last. You dont need em to get the springs out, but you will, to get em back in.
