'94 F150 shock tower replacement

Im going to be replacing my shock tower on my 94 f150, just wondering if I could get some tips that would help me along with the process, my father replaced one side a couple years ago and now the shock rotted through the bracket so Im just bouncin on the shock lol. Any tips about the brake line attachment or compressing the spring would be appreciated aswell. Thanks guys

You should be able to hold the truck up(jack stand) and drop the axle down(remove tire) to allow the spring to just fall out, no compressing necessary like in a car. There is a strap holding it to the bottom of the shock tower, so if it is not rotted off you will need to remove it before the spring comes loose.
