  Q: How to replace the rear coil springs on Chevrolet SSR?

  A: The process of installing rear Coil Springs begins with vehicle suspension and a rear axle support system before proceeding with shock absorber lower mounting bolt removal. When removing shock absorber lower mounting bolts be cautious to avoid lowering the rear axle past the frame contact point for the upper Control Arms which could result in damage. Handle the rear axle at a gradual pace to protect the spring's coating since coating damage may cause premature failure. You will need to take out the rear Coil Springs next. Install new rear Coil Springs inside their designated space alongside a gradual lift of the rear axle. Insert the shock absorber lower mounting bolts and tighten them to 80 nm (59 ft. Lbs.). Lower the vehicle while also taking out the rear axle support.
