lowering back again

[binkylad]

hi,
i have coioovers in my ibiza, the back isnt low enough for me so i am going to take the adjuster cups out, is it a case of taking out the lower arm bolt and the spring with come out without much fuss or will it be a nightmare geting the spring back in?

cheers

Jack up the rear of the car so that both rear wheels are off the ground. Support the rear axel with a jack....undo both lower strut bolts...lower the beam with the jack and both springs should fall out

might be a stupid question, but does that mean you don't need new springs
