I did both mine on an RP in a day and I am no Austin 7 genius.
I replaced pins and if I recall drove them out without much issue.
First I loosened the U bolts, and loosened the big bolt by drilling a hole through the floor pan to access the head.
Then I drove up and down the road bouncing.
Having then removed the big bolt and driving out the pin, the springs pulled out of the chassis rail with little effort.
Appreciating i might have been lucky it might not be the big job others have experienced.
