start with 1 outer spline, tough part about doing it is that you have to put it all back together to see how it looks, dont forget to clearance your spring plates and to go with a smaller shock in the rear, otherwise you get to listen to clunking all the time.

what cha mean clearance the spring plates :blink: ??? For tire clearance or shock? These buses are new to me :unsure: oh yeah, what about the snubber, use a beetle and what shocks are you using???

You have to notch your spring plates where they come into contact with the stop.

Yes definitely remove the sway bar if your going to go any lower, it will drag and snag, and as Needles experienced it can do much worse.
