This might help.
  • Reduce pressure on the springs first by lowering the spring perches that raise the spring.
  • Then you want to undo the top nut that holds the strut mount.
  • Take off the mount and then remove and replace the spring.
  • Re-thread the perch back up as far as you need to ensure there is pressure against the spring and it will not move.

If you have a spring compressor to hold the coils together while you thread the perches up and down it might help you out.

I wouldn't worry too much about spring length, because you can always adjust the spring perch to compensate.

Can I do it through my phone or does it need to be through computer?
