The rear springs are easy, Just unbolt the shocks and a little man power

The fronts you just need a pair of spring compressors. Take the wheels off, unbolt everything and remove the spring/struts and compress the springs to unbolt and move.

Im sure there is a few tutorials or vids on youtube its a pretty straight forward setup

 

I found this handy how to in the search window, nothing up my sleeve, voilà!!!

I looked on line for the right height springs for hhr ss and list 2 springs.One is thin springs and the other is a thicker spring .Which one do I use? Thanks Geeze

 

There was only one type of SS springs that were on the HHR SS when new. Since you didn't list a link or part number to where you got that info, I would say that you're looking up the wrong springs.

edit: Your previous post said you're trying to return your SS to it's stock ride height. Are you looking for the stock HHR SS springs ? Or trying to raise your height with the Cobalt springs ?

The part numbers are the key, for you to search for the best deal

 

Good info Oldblue. Those part #'s seem to have been updated at some point.
Just for reference, these are the old part numbers straight off of my stock 2010 SS springs sitting in my shop.
Front: 22712125
Rear: 15938616

A FWIW. Don't go by the gmpartsdirect.com listing. It shows a totally different # for the front SS spring. It lists the same # for he SS and LT spring so their database must be incorrect.

 

Hmmm, so do these guys? They list fitment for all models, now is this to lower the LS/LT and stock for the SS? GM parts direct list the part number for the FE5 suspension! And it is true that they do physically fit all models!
