rear leaf spring removal ???
May have to remove the rear end and noticed in my shop manual that a special tool is used to compress the rear spring.
Is there another technique to remove the spring with out the tool??
tks

No special tools needed; simply support the car taking the weight off the rear wheels, undo / remove the adjustment bolts on either end, remove the center brackets.
Just be careful and use common sense, safety first.

About 15 min after car it up and wheels are off. I just did the job converting to coilovers.
