| how do you get standard springs back in, cos i was gonna lift my gem back up to standard but then just decided to go like 1 1/2 inche lower than standard and i had a hell of a time trying to get them into the front so how the hell do you get fully standard ones in, and i was using spring compressors too... |

| use trolley jack under lower control arm and another jack under cross member to keep car up a bit then just pop the bottom ball joint, put new spring in and jack the comtrol arm up and do up ball joint again simple. |
