New barrage of brick questions 200 1983

Well just to be sure I went over to a friends house eariler (he has one of those nice car lifts) and we quickly removed my transmission to check for leaks. Clutch assmb. and flywheel were removed, now the rear seal - or at least that is what I think it was, had no oil leaking from it. We turned around to look at the transmission and it as well turned out to be 'dry'. My leak was comming from a loose drain plug I'll assume, so problem solved.

Now I have a few other stupid questions. First being, how hard is it to swap out the front/rear springs and install those sway bars from IPD? Now take into mind that I will not have the use of a lift (which is too bad) instead I'd have to rely on jackstands if I could even do it that way.

Any special tools I'll need for the process mentioned above? I'll assume I'll need a spring compressor at the very least.

Jeff
