ive heard that when you go to lower the back of a swing axle vw, when you pull the spring plates off the torsion bar it will shoot downwards. is this true? if so, what can i do to prevent it from flying off? any help would help. thanks

put a floor jack under the spring plate,when you knock it out of postion it will have the tension on the jack that you can now lower gently.
