Hi
Since I installed (or my mechanic did) a MPI kit on my MM, I find it very hard to remove and put back in the rearmost shock. Any tricks? Yes I tried cargo straps, but they tend to slide off. Any other ideas? Some kind of a tool with a link to it?

Large zip ties. THey seem to be a little more stable on shock then the tie down straps and dont get in your way.
Where do I get large enough zip ties? Can you post a link to such a zip tie? 
How do I compress it?

You can always connect smaller ones together to make a longer one.

What do I use to push the shock together so I can attach the zip tie?

Couple of bucks is exactly what I have used before. Ideally a shock compressor to compress shock but until I just built on I used a ratchet strap on both sides of spring to compress. Works pretty well.

This is what I presently have.
That's a yard stick.
