I'm not sure what is going on with mine. Used the tips outlined in the first post to start installing TRD springs. The front was a piece of cake, the rear...

I've worked about 5 hours on the rear, only got the passenger side spring in and the strut isn't even going through the hole in the trunk. The driver's side I can't get the strut to swing out or come out at all, it is bound up in there good. I've taken every bolt out of the lower control arm. Next move is to completely take the lower control arm off, I know it will come out then.

I just can't figure out why I'm having so much trouble with it. I've done this on other cars and it was rather simple.

Another odd thing, when doing measurements before starting, the driver's side was about 3/4" higher than the passenger side. Never messed with the suspension prior to today and it has less than 2k miles on it.
