Does anyone in Melbourne have a spring compressor suitable for the front end of the 105 that I could borrow in the next couple of weeks?
If not I'll get some threaded rods and lower the pan that way (method described here (http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/gt-1965-1974/148793-front-spring-removal.html)), but sounds like it'll be heaps easier with the right tool!
Email, PM, or 0400 013 175 - would be much appreciated!
If you're sitting on the edge of your seat, I couldn't get a factory tool, so I pulled one spring out tonight using the 'threaded rods' technique. Painful, but it worked. Photos here (http://www.alfaclubvic.org.au/forum/index.php?topic=363.msg35715#msg35715).
