Default Jeep front coils

Hey guys,
I was wondering if you had any tips on the best way to remove front coils on a 94 XJ?

Jack up the front of the jeep, disconnect the sway bar and let the axle drop.

Also disconnect the shocks at 1 end. If the axle still wont drop enough diconnect the control arms at the axle end. jack the axle up on the opposite side, this will cause it to droop a little more. have someone stand on the end of the axle you are working, Pushing it down.
