Default Installing New Springs

I just ordered some new springs for my T Maxx. I was just wondering how to take off the old ones and install the new ones? Thanks for the help

The best way would be to take them off the truck then unscrew the mounting piece at the bottom of the shocks. Then pop off that little cap and the spring will fall right out. At the same time you can clean out your shocks and change or add oil to them if needed.

Thanks for the help, how much fluid should be in the shock bodies?

Fill them up completely, if there's excess it'll just get squeezed out.
