bitch of a job ford has a special tool to help, basicly take the axle off and heat the swinging arm ends where the torsion bars go in to and beat them off!

Is it not coil springs on you van?
Remove the strut with the broken spring. Clamp the spring remove the strut. Release the the spring clamps.Clamp the new spring. Refit spring to strut.Release clamps. Refit strut.
Just be careful when working with tensioned coil springs!
