Alright, place a solid car jack under the end of the springplate and bring it under load to the point that the jack starts just raising the car. You have now unload the springplate. Be carefull with the next process. Always watch out that there are now bodyparts like legs, knies etc are under the springplate as its under a lot of tension!!!!!!!! Unbolt the 4 bolts so the cover comes of. Pry with a suitable bar or lever gently the springplate from the torsionbar till its over the stop. When its over the stop you must unload the carjack so the springplate will go down on it. Good luck.
