I've read this twice, and am not certain what you are trying to do.

If you are talking about the semi trailing arms, place a jack under the rear of the arm, disconnect the shock, and raise the car/lower the trailing arm and the spring will fall out.

All rubber suspension bushings should always be installed loosely, then tightened only once the car is sitting at road height, all four wheels on the ground. You can accomplish this by driving the car up onto a set of ramps for access to the fasteners.
