Both Backside coil springs snapped! :o
 
Should i take my time fixing this(because i hear its not as bad if the back springs to break), orrrrr is it a fix-asap type of problem. Ive also been told the positioning were the springs are snapped determines how much of a threat it is.

Any input is great if you're in experience on this

I'd be less concerned with deciding when to fix them and more concerned about why they snapped in the first place o_O

I'll bet he was re-creating that scene from Ferris Bueller's Day Off where the two parking attendants went for a day-out in the Dad's Ferrari 250 TR.

Just replace them. It's not exactly life threatening, but if they collapse completely you'll end up having to replace a tire as well as some potential body work. Springs breaking isn't terribly uncommon, so I wouldn't scratch my head over that too much. Find some used OEM springs for dirt cheap or buy aftermarket for around 250-300 bucks. Go H&R or Eibach or something and get a great warranty.
