spray the link bolts with wd40 for sure (or penetrating oil), they were the toughest for sure. I used a ratchet with alot of muscle on the spring compessor. Be prepared for sore arms if you do it by hand, lol.
Yeah you need to support the control arm with a jackstand, which is in my how to.
And yes you need to unbolt the sway bars too, but that is easy and obvious, sorry I missed that. I never undid my trailing arms, you should be able to remove them without.

here is 07gxpgrays pic of his gxp. i think it looks pretty good, using those spacers would probably level it out with the front more... idk if you have seen it yet but nacho found that they are coming out with lower springs for the front that would match more with the back.
yeah i saw that post but i got these last summer but never got around to putting them on since i had to move my cutout first....i think i may leave them off so i can get as much drop in the front until the other springs come out
I need the new front drop springs. I have two 10s in the back with a custom box and it definitely upsets the angle of the car. I want a little bit more rake and front drop.
