In game quest helper was very unhelpful for my last spreader. The pins on the map are correct if your in game helper is as terrible as mine was today. Hope this helps save someone some stress.

Also, remember you can fly in pandaria. I'm kicking myself for not realizing it until the end of the quest ;)
