Hi new member here. I bought a 2004 V-6 Mustang a couple months ago. My first car! I've been doing some of the things that have been neglected on the car. One thing that I am currently puzzled on is the front lower control arms. The ball joints are shot and the bushings are a little sqeeky so I figured I would replace the lower control arms. I've read all the good advise you guys have given on replacing these, but one thing worries me....the coil spring rests on the LCA. Won't it jump out of place and injury me if I try and remove the LCA? Could some of you guys clarify how I should go about this? Thanks
