Just a tip for anyone doing the rear springs in cold climates or high mileage cars. Don't take off the rear camber bolt. It will most likely be seized and won't come out you'll have to cut it and get a new aluminum swing arm along with bolt assembly. Take the two lower bolts of where the disc is and pull the spring out. I'm down 400$ extra doing it this way.
So convenient that you have a hoist at home in the backyard, I wish I had space for one at home. That thing is a game changer way more easy to work on a car.
A hug to you from Brazil, it's a dream to have a garage like yours here, very difficult financially. You are an inspiration for me to work on my car in my garage while being lean and efficient. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
dude, i'd love to have your setup. i had a hell of a time getting that alignment bolt back in due to the exhaust location. maybe Sean's way? But.. i didn't have a lift.

The reason you do not do it the way you did it is because the bolts your removed are one time, torque to yield bolts. They need replaced.
At least it wasn’t the 10mm
Step 1: schedule a time for a shop to let the pros do this.
