That's the one. Snap it up now!
I think I had to jack it up on the chassis on one side, remove that wheel, lower the chassis onto an axle stand and repeat the other side.
Otherwise it sits chassis on axle stands with wheels still on the ground so you can't get them off or lower the axle enough to get the springs out.

Jack the axle up as high as you can, then block the chassis up, remove wheels, lower axle and remove, unless I misunderstand what you are trying to do
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there
