I didnt remove the rear sway bar. Bet that would helped cause it was a slight PITA putting in the new rear springs.

Get a spring compressor, it'll make your job a whole lot easier, and hmmm, new springs, shocks, what happen to selling your cars?

The rears are a joke. Unbolt the main shocks, the quad shocks and the sway bar and you can lower the rear with a jack far enough to pull the springs out by hand

why in the hell would you need to unbolt the rear shocks to remove the rear springs??????????? wtf?????

unless you have coilovers, there should be no reason to unbolt the rear shocks.

Because when I asked for help it was for the whole thing. Shocks/struts/springs. So, I had to drop the shocks too
