How do I put spring back on - Cars & Trucks

YOU MEANT GRAD CHEROKEE.
wrong springs,
shocks are not springs at all they are just motion dampeners.
the put new coil springs rear
means THEY? who is they, ok a shop.
They DID I WRONG, TAKE IT BACK
Did you got to a Low RIder shop? LOL !
they should not have ever put in coil sparings
unless you said car rides lower than stock.
or told them to on a whim
or they cheated you. (called building ticket in the business) evil.

If the spring has a long section that hooks around the pedal just use a screw driver and place the blade under the spring and on to the pedal arm and lever the spring back until the hook bit goes over the pedal .

which spring is it. the small ones that holds the shoes or one of the long ones from the top

Remove the door by removing the attachment bolts/screws so you can re-attach the spring to it's position then put it back on.

u need a repair manual or go to library sec629 for rebuild books

If it's a C shaped spring, just put the spring on the handle and pound the handle onto the shaft. The shaft is tapered and will spread the spring open until it snaps into the slot on the shaft.

Easiest would be to look at the right side wheel (assuming it's not been dismantled as yet) Take note of which spring goes where but also in which direction. ie if the long end of the spring is pointing to the front of the car on the RH side, then the same spring on the LH side of the car should also be pointing forward. The trick to shoe assembly is to put the springs on before you fit the shoes to the housing. Fit the first shoe to the parking brake cable, then fit it to the housing. Now attach the springs to the fitted shoe. Last connect the other shoe to the springs and pull the shoe into its seat.

You will need a mechanic to put the spring back on as it is brute force that does the trick.
Running a rope through the end - and having an elephant back up and stretch it on the hood is close to what needs to be done. Let a pro do it as this can be injury dangerous.

use a flat tip screw driver put flat edge on pin where spring hooks up put spring on brake pad the hook onto screw driver lift up as lifting spring will slide along screwdriver and into place .

there is no springs on brake pads,
if you mean rear drum ,brake shoes,which springs are you having trouble with,the round cylinder springs that hold the shoes fast to the backing plate or the the return springs that bring the shoes back after being pushed out by wheel cylinders.
