No problem. The internet is cool like that.. You're at exact opposite side of the US as I am (well maybe if I lived in Alaska) but we are doing the same conversion the same days, pretty funny
I was thinking of grinding down some typical spring compressors (the cheap $10 ones at VW shops/import stores) hooks to clear the tiney coils then wrapping them with electrical or duct tape to protect the powdercoat on the springs from scraping off. Just something to think about..
