How do I replace the front coil springs on a 1995 Aerostar?

I need to change the front coil springs on a 95 Aerostar, but need some detailed instructions. Anyone out there done that before? Thanks!

Welcome to this forum! You will need to compress the springs with the lower control arm. They don't make a tool for this, but I designed some tools of my own for this job. Take a look at # 63 in my list of useful threads: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=195437

Thanks. I'll let you know if I have more questions.
