[V8] [Bulk] Clutch overspring Q

.... I was able to do mine with the clutch pedal to the floor ... a lot of
contortion was involved to get way the "F" up to where the spring attaches,
and it is always fun to try to get the pin through and keeping everything
aligned ... 

Good luck!

So I've replaced the clutch pedal and clutch master, but that overspring is
giving me a real headache. Looks like I have to figure a way to compress it
before installing, and maximum extension is with the clutch pedal fully
depressed. Any pointers? 

Otherwise I'll have to rig some steel wire to hold it after compressing with
Channel Locks. I tried Zip Ties, but they just couldn't handle the tension. 

TIA
