1. Measure clearance between lowest point of rear crossmember and ground, Fig. 2.
2. If clearance is less than 9.65-10.83 inches for sedan models or 10.24-11.42 inches for wagon models, remove rear coil spring/shock absorber assemblies.
3. Compress coil springs using suitable tool, until lower spring seat can be rotated.
