Thanks lost wages. Somehow I knew you would post to help me out. I will run to Sears and get a pickle fork. The good news is that the springs are already out. They were cut at one point to lower the truck, so when you jack it up you can pull the springs right out. I won't be using the old spindles or ball joints so no big deal if they get a little damaged. I will give it a whirl and let you know if I need some help.
