The sway bar serves to keep the weight of the vehicle from shifting too much during cornering. It is attached to the lower control arm with bolts that will need to be removed. If the bolts are stuck, try using WD-40 and letting it set before trying to turn them. Once you have removed the bolts, move the sway bar away from the lower control arm.

Remove the upper and lower mountings that connect the shock absorber to the A-arms. Pull it out through the lower A-arm. It is made to go inside the coils and hook onto the spring. Once it is hooked, you tighten the bolt on the spring compressor and it slowly compresses the spring and holds it. Once you have compressed the spring, you will need to check the top and bottom A-arms for any connecting bolts. If any are found, remove them. Use a ball joint separator to break the connection. Now that the components are all loose, slowly release the spring. Loosen the bolt on the spring compressor slowly. This will allow the spring to expand to its normal size and you can remove it from the vehicle. Take it out through the bottom instead of trying to pull it out through the top. Remove any accessories such as insulators that are attached to the spring.

Sometimes you need a specialized tool to separate "quick disconnect" fittings. Consult your vehicle's service manual for directions on your specific type of car. Note that often, the tank must be dropped several inches before you can access these connections, so be careful they do not become fouled while doing so. There are two possible types. If yours is one piece, remove the screws around the filler neck. If it is a two or three piece assembly, loosen the clamp and remove the neoprene hose from the filler neck.

These are often molded assemblies, and may need to be guided while the tank is lowered to avoid obstructions and possible damage to this part. Usually, there are two straps that wrap around the fuel tank, the ends of which are adapted to bolts that fasten through a bracket mounted to the vehicle's frame.  Some vehicles have two support frames similar to a trapeze with four bolts fitted through them which must be removed. Carefully lower the fuel tank to the ground as you finish loosening the bolts.  You may be able to place a low profile floor jack underneath the tank to help lower it, provided you have one and the car is jacked up high enough to allow it. They are fairly flexible, but make sure you don't kink or damage them in the process. Perform the maintenance or repairs required to the tank, then reinstall it by following the previous steps in reverse order.

Wipe off the filler and vent pipes with a soft towel and disconnect their tubes to the tank. Unhook your filler neck. Locate the fastening system that holds your fuel tank in place. Loosen the gas tank strap bolts until they are only held on by enough threads to support it. Pull the  gas tank support straps out from around the tank so they do not interfere with moving it. Remove the tank from underneath the car by dragging it sideways.
