[QUOTE=81zoomzoom] I did mine  To change out old rubber bushings.  Didn't  think any about the fiberglass spring,undid the bolt tryed to remove the washer with my hand.   It  came off and threw my hand on the ground so hard it bounced off the ground OUCH MF-ERCry    I didn't brake any bones thank GOD.  Just putin it out there that spring has teeth.   [/QUOTE]
 
which is why you remove the spring first and brace it with a jack
