Re: Rear spring
Let's clarify something. A rear spring completely assembled and intact IS under high tension with the body off and the axle out. Since your center bolt is gone, the upper leaves must be partly relaxed but not totally. If you were to reassemble just the lower leaf to the axle, it would be a very difficult one man job. A spring spreader would be called for then, and would be a must if the rest of the spring pack was assembled. If you can't put it back together without the tool, why not buy or borrow one now.
