My top mount is pretty bad, quite a bit of surface rust, but I dont think its a major issue. To remove the spring, your best bet is to take the strut off the car complete, and take it to a local garage who can give it a blast with the impact wrench to get it off. Just remember to clamp the spring first before you take the nut off.
