Default Shock and Spring installation

I could have sworn I saw a post with a link in it a few days ago that talked about how to do shock and spring installation on our cars... but now I can't find it for the life of me. Was I imagining this or is there a good document or web site that goes through all of the steps?

Be careful with the passenger side, the nut is likely to be rusted to the shock shaft. You may need to drill it off, or cut it off.

The stickies up top are pretty great too, you should check them out sometime too.
