My drivers seat needs the bottom spring replaced. A piece of the outer edge spring broke and is sticking up throught the seat cover. I will also recover the seat.

Any way, I already recovered the rear seat. No too much pain. I know the buckets are more difficult than the rear seat when it comes to recovering but I am just wondering if I can replace the springs without much problem? I just don't want to get into anything I can't finish myself.

All you need is pliers to pull back the tabs holding the springs onto the frame and a small hammer to tap the tabs back into place once you've got the new springs in -- easy as can be. Some areas of the springs are held in by the tension of the spring itself. Those are slightly more difficult, but really not that big of a deal. I replaced the bottoms on my buckets. If I can do it, anybody can do it! 64elkynss

I just replaced the bottom spring on the driver's seat. Mine is a 70 but can't be that much different. Like Tony said, I was able to do it so I'm sure you can. It really is a lot easier than I expected. Took longer to remove the cushion from the spring then to replace the spring.

If you are going to replace a spring or several and covers you might want to look into new seat buns as well. Might be time for a total seat makeover? One thing I have found is the frames and spring assemblies tend to get a little rusty. If you are going to break them down might as well deal with the rust as well.
