Front coils
Ok, after all this time I'm finally putting the car back together. Put the new coils in & attached the spindles. Left side - on whack with a rubber mallet seated the spring in it's pocket, but on the right - not so lucky. Any good ideas to seat this spring? (removing the spindle again is NOT a good idea)

I had the same problem. I put a jack under my lower arm, disconnected the spindle (this is the only way I knew how to do it) and slowly lowered the jack. Once all the tension was gone, hit it with a BFH and popped right in. The BFH may work for you with out disconnecting the spindle. Try it.
