the axle wheels off the ground and bang the shackle out you may have to jack axle up or down for the correct shackle. I never yet used a spreader used porta - power nope. So simple just relieve spring pressure that's why you raise the car so the whole axle is hanging ...hope this makes sense because I work alone for me its hard to ex plane things I just do.

that's sort of what i was suggesting in my first post...although i admit i may not have expressed myself clearly. i'll be trying that method for sure, as it's fairly safe seeing as how there's little pressure involved other than that which would be applied when simply jacking up the car to change a flat or something similar. thanks!
