Default Front end issues?? Take a look!

I was checking over the front end since I just bought this 95 XJ and I noticed two isues that I wonder if I should correct right away, or if I have some time! ( I'm trying to fix the rear differential noise! if you see my other post!)

Drivers side has this sway bar link? that is bent at the top. I think it is only the link that is bent, but I cannot tell for sure.

On the passenger side, it looks like the spring is broken on the top or maybe bent?

The sway bar link doesn't look like too hard to replacer, but that spring on the other hand looks like a bear. I have compressed springs before to install struts, so I assume it is like that, but how in the world did it get in there?

Thanks!

Stock spring is fairly easy to get out. Un bolt shock, and jack the other side up. You may or may not have to unbolt track bar. I did mine, just because I was putting 4 inch lift coils on. Unbolting track bar will give you quite a few more inches.
