I just replaced my springs on my TA last week with a friend...you need a spring compression tool...however, we didnt have the right one...the ones shops use....so it was a major B**TCH....if we had that, it wouldnt have been that bad...but you do have to drop the A-arm, separate the balljoints and drop the front sway bar....i would reccomend you have someone help you if you are doing it yourself. I do not know about struts...those i havent touched yet. Good luck.
