Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Does anyone know the proper procedure for installing new rear coil springs. Bentley only details the procedure for the fronts. Specifically, do you have to have a compressor for the springs, especially the new ones or is there some other trick? Must you disconnect CV joint to lower control arm to remove old springs?

Thanks for your help. P.S. I did not pay dealer pricing for the new ones.

Jim W.
