im in the prossess of lowering the rear of my 57. I knocked the spring plates of the rests and measured the degrees on both sides. I left them in. when I checked my car the next day my buddy had knocked the springs plates all the way off and out. the springs came out of the inner splines.

I only wanted to lower the car one notch on the inner splines.

does anyone have advice on were I should start in getting these back together right.

thanks.....

What are friend for. Get ready for some trail & error fitting those torsions to sit the same on both sides of the car. Very tedious, but it can be done.

If you put the plates in so they are just touching the bottom of the torsion stops that is about one notch.
