Re: Rear spring spreader
I have the original WR Wilson Ford tool. Other members of my chapter of the club have aftermarket spreaders.Check with your local club and I'm sure you may fins someone who has one.
In the past I have used a bottle jack with a length of heavy chain and a chunk of 2X4 to spread the spring. Place the 2X4 on top of the axle housing with the spring end on top of it. Wrap the chain around each side of the rear cross member leaving enough excess hanging below the rear end to slip in a bottle jack. Jacking up the jack will pull the chain down and raise the rear end. This spreads the spring.
