    Took me a while though - it was like an odd puzzle game. Wish I could be more helpful - but by the time you finally get it in/out, you're so mad or happy that you don't care how it was done.

    Rear bar was different - had exhaust and axles out before I could get the rear bar in/out. Then I think I figured out it can slide in "through" spring..
    And yeah!
    I felt stupid for not being to wiggle it out. I tried using the jack to compress one swing arm and try different angles and the bar kept yanking on the brake lines. I didnt wanna F up one of those.
    About 4hours later, (it was more but im trying not to embarass myself) I finished and was soo happy to be done. Cross brace goes on tmrw 2. Thank got that's easy

      Rear bar I removed ONE rear spring and let the trailing arm drop down a bit, just watch the brake lines.

        thats why i was afraid to ask at first. a couple local e30 guys said it just wiggled out. After an hour of trying to wiggle it out I was like....oh well if they make fun of me. Im learning as I go tho. and with each thing i complete confidence grows for the next project. Thanks guys
