[MV] CCKW brake springs and oil seals

It seems to take a pretty big cowboy and a pair of Vice-Grips to install
the rear brake return springs on a CCKW. There must be a better way or tool
to do this. Also I am planning to replace the felt inner wheel seal with a
regular oil seal. Anyone else done this? Suggestions? Comments? My truck
has the "Split" axles. I haven't started on the front brakes yet, but I'm
sure I will need to replace the seals there too. Is there an inner-axle
seal on the front axle, and if so does the axle have to be split to replace
them?

Thanks.
