True. One point of adjustment is easier than two. I'm thinking if he's got a 3/4 ton suspension he'll have trouble just replacing the coils. Getting the lower ball joint loose on 3/4 tons can be a real pain in the a$$ and frustrating. The rubber boot will get destroyed at least. At worst he'll need to replace the ball joint. Those A-arms will probably only take one more ball joint press if they're stock, so I'm thinking what would be the easiest way to get this done with less parts replaced.
Of course a word of caution: my floor jack weighs a friggin' TON, so it's substantial enough to not move around with angular pressure on it (not straight up and down). If you have a light weight jack you might not want to try what I suggested.
