I'd guess that it would require removing the bottom shock bolts to decompress the spring. Then just removing the two pivot bolts, moving the axle assembly down, putting the pivot bolts back in, and putting the shock bolts back in.

Should be as easy as pie. (Mmmmmm... pie!)

Actually you are moving the front of the rear axle up. I did this on a car lift with lift stands and air tools took about 30 mins to an hour. Probably about 2 hours laying on the ground.

This mod completely changed the way my car rotates. I would have to say this is great for people that track or auto-x their cars.
