Bob, forget Haynes. Use the illustrated instructions in the FAQ. You will need a spring compressor for coil strut springs. No need to take apart the bottom suspension aside from the sway bar connectors. In essence, you release the nut at the top, then push the entire assembly down (your foot on the control arm), then swing it out from under the fender lip in order to compress the spring and remove the strut.
