Trying again tomorrow. I plan to wedge the suspension while the wheel is still on since the suspension pops up once the shock is removed. I plan to remove the caliper and the rear most lower suspension arm. This should finally allow me to finally free the shock and get the springs changed.
I kind of like the slight rake the car has at the moment with the front lowered. But getting the rear lowered will be great, that fender gap is crazy. |

Finally done. The wedge theory failed. But I found a way to fit a bottle jack in and it was smooth sailing from there. Ride feels good and traction is waY better.

What did you guys do to get the rear lower shock bolt loose? I couldn't break it loose. No corrosion or rust on my car at all so its not that

I ran a couple wobble extensions to put the ratchet more towards the middle of the car and then slid the jack handle over it with the car jacked up as high as I could get it. It popped loose with some persuasion.
