if you are talking about the spring perch then those two pieces need to be rotated apart, looking down at the top of the shock rotate the top ring to the left and the bottom ring to the right.

Get someone to hold the cilover while you tap a goove on the ring using a chisel or flat screwdriver and tap with hammer. This is how i tighten and loosen mine. Its easier to do while on the car though

I figured that it would when it was on the car, for some reason though the whole inner assembly was twisting when i would go to turn the bottom lock.. so basically i have to hold the inner part( inside the spring) and hit the lock at the same time... THANKS!!! a bunch .. didnt think to use a hammer .
One other thing.... so i got the stock camber arm all unbolted. but for some reason the bolt wont pop out... ive hit it with a hammer... no good any suggestions ?.. ill put a picutre in next post

Sorry for some reason the picture would not load.. too large. but i finally got the new camber put on.. now hopefully all thats left is the alignment !!
Thanks again for all the quick response!
