Default Rear Springs install

I'm told that the rear springs are simple to get out and install. But I've heard different ways to do it. One way was to loosen the top shock nut and take it off with the wheel off, the other is to take the bottom shock nut off and rear sway bar and take it out from behind the wheel. Overall, which way is the fastest and or easiest, and is it really that easy?

Thanks in advance.

Easiest is to take the bottom shock nut off. You may or may not need to take the sway bar endlink off.

Jack up the rear, remove the Lower shock bolt and pull out the Spring, That easy.
