Subject:front spring removal question (and rear spring removal answer)
From:Warren Lail

I need to replace my front springs, but I'm not sure really how to go about it.  Has anyone done this recently or written it up?

Just last month, I switched out the rear springs.  All you have to do is to disconnect the shock, jack the bus up so that the rear suspension hangs down, and just pull the spring out.  CV axles are not involved (for whoever asked).  You don't even need to remove the rear wheel.  It took about 20 minutes total.

But those front springs look a bit more complicated to get to. Help!
