i feel your pain...LITERALLY! But one ure under the fender, its all pretty much pie. once u look at it, u will know what everything is. If u have a hayes manual itll help you out but it can be done without it.
the rear is essentially the same as teh front jsut without the dampener fork and the brake line unless u have four disks. Just make sure u use the spring compressor the correct way. start at the very top and the very bottom then work down. taking out the shock is also a hard part. its helpful to have an extra hand to push down the disk or drum while u shimmy it out.
BTW do u have a 4 or 2 dr?
