So was putting my s-techs on today, aside from smashin my middle finger and losing the nail (vicodin fixed that lol) the front were a breeze. Now im on the back got both struts out with new springs on them. Now im having one hell of a time getting them back in, the angle im having to push them up at isnt letting the top of the strut get all the way up against the body, anyone have any tricks tips? or something i can maybe remove to help get it in there. Ive already tried putting the spring compressors on it and trying to put em in but that just made it more awkward to get in there. Any help asap is greatly appreciated.

 

take a pic of whats going wrong, is the trailing arm getting in the way?

 

Have someone jump on that rotor or drum. Make the assembly go down, but at the same time, try to apply pressure to get that strut back in.

 

i thought that was going to be his problem too loooooooooong cheater bar behind the drum and have a fatty stand on it, make those chunky friends help for once, i did

 

^jajaja
i invited a bunch of friends to help me install my sways...they just ended up drinking all my beer and watching! then when they finaly helped they decided to put my tires on with the lugnuts facing the wrong way
last time i asked for help from them!

 

thanks you guys got em on today just had my dad stand on the drum and bounce it up n down till i got it in, thanks for the help.

 

sure anytime

 

i just put a long pipe in between there and pushed down until my boy got it in...o well it doesnt matter cuz you gottem in anyway
