Re: front suspension...

You dont need a spring compressor. Jack up the front, set it on stands. Put your jack under the lower control arm. Loosen your castle nuts, DO NOT REMOVE, and wack that spindle with a hand sledge...They pop right apart generally. Then remove your castle nut and slowly and carefully lower the jack until you can pop out the spring. It straight forward, but its work, no doubt.
