Just do what I do, get underneath and start taking things apart untill you break something then give it to someone else to fix. LOL

Search function should produce what you need.
Rear is easy - undo the dampers, and the springs can usually be removed and refitted by hand.
Front involves removing the struts from the car, and then using spring compressors - one of the most dangerous tools known to mankind.
