GOT2B GM Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 Auxilary springs. I remove them and leave them off when doing rear struts in these. Quote

mfewtrail Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 so did i thanks! it was to difficult to reinstall them so i left them off You're supposed to get a bolt in most rear strut packages that allows you to compress those "springs." Leaving them off doesn't make much of a difference anyway. I have one w-body that hasn't had those installed since 2002. Quote
carkhz316 Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 I've never seen 'em on either one of my Lumina's, so PO's must of thought the same as you guys and chucked 'em. I'm assuming it's just on 1st gens as I haven't seen a place for them on my Monte. Quote
