As you can see by the picture, My rear coil springs are to long, there is no room for adjustment. I met with Ed Poundsand end of last season and have been talking to him a few times lately and the decision is to change both of my rear coil springs. I have the springs on order at Fodrills and I am picking them up tomorrow. Any tips that anyone can be give me on changing these springs would be very helpful. I know I am going to need to compress the springs some to get them off and on. How do I do that ?? Input please

Just so I can get a little knowledge on the subject, what are you needing to adjust? My rail is setup just like yours, no more threads at the top. If I screw it down more, the rail will raise up (which I don't want) and if I were to screw it up about a 1/4" more, there would be no pressure on the springs at full extension....

As far as swapping the coils out, jack the rail up taking all the weight off the wheels, stick a jack under each wheel to take a hair bit of pressure off so you can unbolt the bottom of double bypass, then unbolt the bottom, loosen the top nut above the top coil, then the second nut, back them all the way off the threads, then push up the bottom cup that goes under the bottom of the lower spring, there is a big c clip right there, you should be able to take it off with your fingers, slide the cup down, then slide off the coils.

I can swap my coils without removing the shocks off the rail, you may have to remove the entire coilover, but the same process goes for removing the springs. If you have to take off the coilover, you don't need to unbolt the bypass, just remove the coilover and set it on your work bench, they're a snap....

After talking to Ed he showed me a couple of things. If you look at the picture the top spring is compressed some already. He also told me that my bottom spring to big. You can see on the upper springs that is fully compressing and its marked up and the bottom spring is to stiff and not doing anything. I have a 2.5 x 14" (400) on top and a 2.5 x 16" (600) on the bottom, My car weights about 1900 lbs, he wants me to get a 2.5 x 14" (450) and 2.5 x 14" (500)

Is he then suggesting to go stiffer with the valving in the bypass? Also unless you have weighed your car I think it is closer to 2100 or so lbs.
