Questions on installing springs, Need help ASAP!!!
Hey guys, i'm currently in the process of installing my Hotchkis springs on the z. The rears were simple, took me about an hour to do both the rears including new struts. I'm on the fronts now and can't get the strut to budge. I removed the sway bar, took the 3 nuts off of the top of the strut as well as removed the large bolt holding the bottom of the strut to the control arm assembly. Am i missing something or do I just need to yank the hell out of it? Thanks for your help guys!!! 
A "how to" install on springs would help a lot. I searched and didn't have any luck finding anything.

Fuuuu...even the slightest hint will help. I've done suspension before on my dsm's and my srt and usually they all just came apart with no issues. I have 4 bolts out, there is nothing else attached to the strut. I put a jack under the assembly and even tried jacking it up and it didn't budge. Anyone?
