These are about 8 years old and the drivers side appears to be broken. I used the sawzall last time.

Agreed…a zaw-saw or reciprocating saw.
  
Although if you’ve done it once, just see if you can get your ones out.
  
My driver’s side is sagging, they are about 10 years old, I did use anti-seize so I’ll let you know how mine come out

Buy a reciprocating saw.

My weekend project will be replacing the rear springs on the BJ8. Any tips on how do do it? The last time it was a bear and I kept thinking there must be a better way.
