There is no diagram only written instructions in the factory sevice manual, if you don't have one try Ebay.

sounds like the vehicle needs to be serviced by a dealer. is it under 36000 miles? factory warranty runs 3 years or 36K whichever comes first. check with your local dealer or the NHTSA for related recalls or TSBs

There is a tool that presses the spring down to allow for the replacement of the clip. It is also used in the removal of the same spring and clip. This is if you are refering to the spring and clip that go on last, after your turn signal switch. If you are referring to the spring that goes around the spline, I would recommend finding a deep well socket of similar diameter than the spring, but big enough to allow the spline entry and use it to depress the spring fully bfore placing the clip
SOURCE: HOW DO YOU REPLACE THE BEARINGS IN THE STEERING
no one replaces the bearings. it is far more difficult than you might think. special tools are required.
buy a complete used one.
