Can I sneak a jack under the spindle and see if I can get between the spring coils? Just wondering if any of you have run into this.

I'm going to run out and try the jack trick while I wait for our sages advice.

EDIT: Never-mind, I combo of a jack under the spindle and a pry bar to expand the spring where needed did the trick.
