Ive got to put my FOX racing shocks on the front of my sled now. I also need a spring compressor thing so I can remove the springs off the HPG and put them on the FOX. Does anyone know where I can get one of those?? Also, is taking the front shock area apart difficult or not?? thanks.

Spring compressors are usually 20-30 bucks, try here. (http://www.denniskirk.com) Taking the front end apart is usually just a matter of loosening some nuts and removing some bolts.

Usually you can compress them by hand (I do with another set of hands to remove those retainers) takes all of half a min. :)
