If you too are replacing the Springs move on to loosen the 21 mm nuts retaining the top hats to the coilovers. Be sure to use a plier or wrench to keep the shaft from rotating when loosening the top nut.

In the images, we show us just using on our hands but then realized that it would be better for the benefit of the coilover to be held with a wrench rather than just our hands.

Included with the coilovers are these metal and plastic washers to help the springs seat better and reduce binding. Make sure you leave the metal wahser closest to the spring followed by the plastic one. The combination of these two washers allow for the proper movement of the spring.
