I just recently bought a '98 v6 Stang and the other day me and my dad were taking the rotors off to get them turned and I realized the back left spring was off set. What would be the best route take to fix this?

you dont need a compressor if you dont wish although in some ways it might be easier
but lifting your car supporting it by the frame and not the axle un bolt your shocks...while unbolting support axle with jack then while unbolted lower the jack
if you push down on the axle to the side where the spring is not seated correctly it should be pretty easy to relocate/reseat the spring

Alright cool, thanks, also would it be a good idea to change the isolaters because from the naked eye it looked like crap
