Just start unscrewing things until it falls apart. It's not that hard.

There's 3 bolts on top of the shock tower, the tie rod bolt and the the two bolts that holds the knucle to the shock.

^^^it shouldn't be that hard... there's only less than 10bolts to unscrew...

I.E. FRONT
open hood
unscrew 3 bolts on top of the strut
take wheels off
unscrew bolt that holds strut and axle together

if you can't do this, you might wanna take it to a pro! save's you headache and save's your knuckle from bleeding and get a strut compressor if you don't want to get knocked out by the springs... hint* hint*
