Compressing road springs on a TR6.

["John Jacobsen-Watts" <johnw@wrq.com>]

I would like to swap out my old IRS springs with a set from TRF;
mild competition. Since the other springs just fit in, I'm
assuming I will need to compress the new springs to get them in.

So, what tool to use? Any caveats to this process? How tough to
perform the same steps on the front end? (I have the parts to
rebuild, but am somewhat scared of compressing springs after all
of the horror stories.)

Thanks much,
John
