6. Let the axle hang. Note the
orientation of the rear springs, how
there is a shortened vertical distance
between each of the coils at the top of
the spring.
7. Work the springs out of place. Pop
the bottom end toward the front of
the vehicle, and pull the spring out.
(Figure 2)
8. In the trunk, pull back the forward
corners of the trunk liner to expose
the top of the shock mounts. Use a
3/8” impact gun with a 15mm deep
socket to remove the nut atop the
strut. The strut should fall out if the
wheels are off the ground. (Figures
3,4) If the nut won’t come off the top
of the shock because the shock is
rotating with the impact gun, place
more weight on the bottom of the
shock/wheel hub.
