Its the same for a W123 - this is what I used to get my spring pads out. DO NOT get ambitious and try to do both sides at once! How do I know? hmmm....
I don't know how the rear wheels can get toed in - when I was swapping spring pads in and out I certainly didnt notice any change in toe in (by eye). Alignment guys said you couldn't adjust the rear toe in.
What does your rear camber look like?

Rear is pretty tilted 2' or more. Check this:
Looking at that it makes sense that the greater the camber the greater the toe in.
[edit]
Just read the links about removing spring without compressor. I will just borrow a compressor
