I just replaced the front spring on my Town Sedan.

I got the spring from "A" Springs (http://www.a-springs.com/products.html), bushing pre-installed. I replaced the shackles and bushings in the spring perches at the same time. It took me less than an afternoon to install (after paint was dry), working by myself. I have a spring spreader but some use 2X4s.
