Rear Springs and Ride Height Adjustment 

[Wade] 1. jack up rear of car and support frame rails on stands. Let the rear hang by the cables.
2. place floor jack under rear of lower control arm and just barely take the pressure off so you can remove the rear bolt.
3. lower jack (and control arm)
4. turn spring (it should be loose at this point)
5. jack rear of arm back into place
6. re-install and retorque rear bolt -- you may have to use a drift or screwdriver to align the hole.

I've done it a few times. Total for both sides is about 30 minutes.
