Rear springs etc.

When I took this thing apart, I didn't know that if you removed the shocks and jacked up the frame, the springs just about fell out by themselves. Instead I used a spring compressor to shorten the springs enough to pull them out of their saddles. When I set the first one on the floor I could see the bolts of the spring compressor bending before my eyes and with all my might I could not loosen those bolts off. There was just too much pressure there. Just as I was ready to call the fire department and tell them I had a bomb in my garage, my mechanic friend pulled up on my driveway. Dave took the springs to work and was able to apply some pressure to the springs and get the bolts undone. The second one came out much easier.
