Need Help Lowering Wcc Bolts
Guys I need some help, over the holiday I tried to install my WCC lowering bolts. The fronts went in with no problem, the rear a different story. What all do I have to take off and loose to get the old bolts out? From what I understood is you loosen the lower A arm and you can get to them ??????? I cant seem to get the a arm loose! The nut is loose but I cant get the a arm to drop at all. Please help me as my car is on jackstands

Travis, If you are replacing the bolts, support the carwith jack stands under the frame. Then use a bottle jack under one side of the leaf spring at the end. Apply pressure at that point until the car starts to rise. This will leave the a arm down but preload the spring, creating a gap to unscrew the bolt and remove it. Hope this helps. Bill
