My receiver is missing the detent spring. How hard is it to replace? Also, does academy carry the spanner wrench?

The rear one is the easy one to replace.
The Academy near me does carry a wrench.
Do your you have a new spring?

You said it keeps falling out. Are you missing the end plate. That is what holds the spring in place.
