I've replaced a broken passenger side rear spring. Using the emergency flat tire jack to get that necessary last bit of clearance to remove/replace the spring and shock was very helpful. There's a spot where you wedge in the jack and then open it up to separate things enough to remove your spring/shock. There's a pic somewhere demonstrating the location. Also, before you pull the shock and old spring apart, make alignment marks on the shock for the new spring so your bolt hole lines up on the re-install.
