Actually, throwing it through the window is step #3, right after taping up your skinless bleeding knuckles and kicking the dog (optional). Our pit bike spring was rather easy to remove as the shock broke in two over a jump and the spring shot out the back like a connon ball. Anyways, we use a woodworking c-clamp that has a thin enough jaw to fit in the coil of the spring to compress it enough to get the bottom washer off. Be careful! (see step#2) A lot of shocks you can back the pre load off enough to do it by hand, if you are a burly man. Good luck!

Thanks. Once I compress the spring will the top lock thing just come off?
