Use a spring compressor to clamp the spring down (Be Careful). disconnect strut from lower control arm, and the 3 or 4 bolts under the hood ontop of the strut tower. Remove strut and spring, remove spring from strut (Still Compressed), put spring on new strut (Still Compressed), Install bolts under hood, aka strut tower, reconnect lower control arm, slowly uncompress the spring and make sure it seats properly. Take it an alignment shop to get your front end re-aligned.
the 95 have different strut it can't be done this way . the lower part of the strut is part of the wheel itself . yuo replace it by the top using the special tool to remove the cartrigne directly one the car .
Autozone has this tool in their loaner/rental tools. Easy job-don't even have to jack car up!
