It looks like you already have a jack under the lower A-Frame. If you remove the lower support arm pin and sway bar link the spring can be removed by lowering the A-Frame. The support arm, spindle and brake assembly should be held up in some way to prevent too much stress on the brake hose. A floor jack at right angles to the frame that can roll as the A-Frame arm is lowered will work best. You will need to have the car jacked up fairly high to do this.
It is indeed very difficult to remove the nuts on the shock absorber bolts with the spring in place.
