Support the car, jack up on the rear end enough to take the pressure off of it. Take the bolts out of the spring at each end and the long U bolts holding the springs to the axle.

There is a bolt in the center of the springs between where the U bolts were that holds the separate springs together.

Coil springs are spiral. Leaf springs are flat blades of steel stacked on top of each other. Air springs are bags of air.

Coil springs are wound tighter at the bottom so that their spring constant is greater (this is to make a linear force after compensating for gravity).
