Its not difficult you will need to take the lower wishbones apart and remove the shock. Use a jack to lower the spring out.
Well...alright then, maybe just a little...

I've got no idea what a Churchhill tool looks like, but made this up for the job as my whole front suspension was out of the van at the time. My other problem was that all the bolts that hold the lower spring retaining plates were rusted solid, so I had to remove the top pivot mounts and remove the springs that way.
