It looks like you took all the bolts out of the A-frame? If so, is that necessary for this job? Some videos state that you have to free up the A-frame in order to create room for the wishbone to lower enough for the springs to relax fully, but to me that seems not necessary. Did you have to do that?

Very helpful!
Have to undertake this on my XJ. Was this car clunking like hell when suspension travel bottomed out?
What about the shock bushing?
Replace the yellow rear shock coilspring isolators donuts, Pn MMD3565AA they affect ride height and those are worn out

It’s so awkward to have a video with absolutely zero verbal discussion as to what is going on or things to watch for
