Re: coilovers
Spray WD-40 liberally and jack your car way up in the air. You took your wheels off right? I know you don't have to in the front but I've always had to in the rear.

Re: coilovers
I usually spray mine with WD-40 after I wash it weekly. Helps prevent future problems.

Re: coilovers
Try some liwuid wrench man..or penetrating lube (same stuff), and a little bit of uhh..shock force
I used two very large prybar screwdriver things...worked for me, car was actually sitting almost an inch lower on the right side and 2 inches higher in front! After the lube use some heat, but careful..that stuff is really flammable!
