    I just put my springs/shocks in last night in the rear. I did have to pry the stock springs out, but overall easy

              Robert - is the car driveable? Let me see what my wednesday is like and perhaps you could drive up to Lynnwood. We can use my garage.

                  I can come down and lend a hand if you have it off the street and dry work area.

                    If you don't have help by Thanksgiving, I'll have moved to Seattle by then and can give you a hand. Contrary to what people are saying, stock springs do not "just fall out", though your H&R should "just pop right in". That said, I was able to compress the stock springs with my (not so beefy) hands and have a friend wiggle them out.

                    You might want someone else there just to make sure nothing else has gone wrong with the back end.
