Not shock spring, the season spring. So for all enthusiast that really like to clean there rides well, how did you get all of that really hard stuff off from underneath your cars. You know... The grime, grease, dirt, dog $hit, cat piss, well stuck on engine oil,(mixed with dirt), power steering fluid, and transmission-gear oil. Whats your secrets? Besides hard work, and probably taking a lot of stuff apart. So lets hear it from every one that gets under there cars and don't just look down at there new wax jobs on cheap paint.

To be completely honest i would just keep all the dirt, dog poop, and w.e else you listed on your car, it actually helps keep away rust. But i guess if your too cool for school then take out the power washer?

Well you can do what I did, you might regret it. Have two illegals at a car wash powerwash your bay, and all the while they're doing this, they have the frontend of your car (wich is pretty high off the ground) suddenly drop and fall off the jack stands....price I have to pay for living in an apt where I can't wash my car....hahaha. Wow,did that piss me off.

Worse thing bout it, they trie dto say my "pos nissan" was already like that. Mind you, my transmission had a 90 degree gangster lean and had to take my bezel off to shift to reverse and 5th. Wow.
