ok i want to lower my car but autozone or checkers didnt have the tool that would fit inbetween my springs to bring um together so i was thinking of just taking the bolt off and raising it slowly and going from there what do you peeps think let me know

you need a spring compressor?
i used one once and got annoyed. its a lot safer to use one though
but i just threw a big rag on the top and slowly loosened it til it popped off. everything popped into the rag so no need finding the bolt and washers.
