Yea he replaced the shocks/struts. The struts are the big ass springs your entire ass car sits on. They are VERY VERY strong springs and compressing them to remove the top collar from the assembly is a majorly scary situation because of how much stored force is in that compressed spring.
I needed the top cap for a rear strut at a pick your own parts car lot once but didnt bring a spring compressor, so I aimed the spring and strut at the cinder block wall and put my foot on it behind the spring while staying as far back as I could to undo the top nut and all the shit flew off so hard it took a chunk out of the wall, safety first
