HELP!, leveling kit questions

ok so im in the process of putting a 2 inch leveling kit on my 91 f150 4X4 we are also replacing the radius arm bushings but running into a few issues

my question is how do you take tension off of the spring? we took the top nut of and it is loose but the spring is too tight to come out, do you have to take the tie rob end off?

and what is the best way to get the old camber bushing out? we have tried heat and chiseling at it without any luck

any help is appreciated thanks!

The camber bushings can be a real pain. If you already have the steering knuckle removed try a ball joint press to remove the camber bushings
