Someone got to know.
Please if any know the sequence of parts of the rear shock, that would be great.
Im currently running the bc coilover, so i am unclear of the parts involved,

Go onto one of the OEM parts sites and look your car up. Under rear suspension it will have a blowup picture of the parts. Click on the pic and it will bring it to the top with the picture and the associated parts.

You should have the following:
1) Shock absorber/damper
2) Rubber Bumper
3) Dust shield
4) Upper mount
5) Spring
6) Upper seat
7) Lower seat
Generally, cars with independent rear suspension should have the entire rear of the car off the ground with both wheels hanging freely. You can then loosen the nut holding the lower end of the shock, then the upper mount and remove. If there is still any pressure from the springs trying to force further downward motion on the shock, you will want to put a spring compressor on the spring before removing the shock.
