    Strut wont compress

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    In the middle of a H&R lowering spring install. I have DSE. I got one side done. When jacking up the lower control arm to ride height in order to reconnect the upper control arms, I am lifting the entire vehicle. Its like the strut wont compress. I am at a loss.
    Help and advise would be appreciated.

    I think you reconnected shit in the wrong order. There’s a best way to reinstall stuff to get the travel you need to get certain components. Unbolt the rest of the stuff from the spindle and start again, doing the UCA’s first.
