I was just going to post this exact kit, you beat me to it. The brake pliers make working with the springs easy and safe. I found the Harbor Freight set to be inferior to nicer brands (I used my neighbor's set previously....Snap-On I think) but they do work. I currently have the HF set because I'm cheap. Find a video online that shows how to use them properly. One end to remove the spring, the other to put the spring back on.

And brake pliers work a jiffy for putting the bigger springs on. You can buy this entire set for $15 at Harbor Freight.
