Can the "best" spring spreaders from Bratton's, etc. be used on the AA rear springs?

Boomer,
My guess is NO. And, it should not take a spreader for the rear springs. They can be unbolted from the axle, rear spring shackle assembly, and the rear spring piviot bracket.

Thanks Neil! That should at the very least make the job less expensive.
