Not at all. Just make sure the parking brake is fully released. Remove
the lower shock bolt. It helps to have a helper to push down with his
foot on the drum while you turn and position the spring to come out or
go back. If it is a diesel Vanagon you may need to loosen the CV bolts a
few turns at the tranny flange. This can help in all vans if the springs
are longer than stock.
