You need to take the tension of the spring off to do almost anything on front suspension that requires removing something. A spring compressor would be the safest & easiest. There is a procedure in the service manual using jack stands and a floor jack under the lower arm but I saw a spring fly about 20 ft when things slipped & don't think that's the best way.
