Default Spring perch replace

Just wondering if anyone could give me quick directions on replacing the upper spring perch on an 850 Turbo wagon? I'm familiar with doing just about everything with cars, just never worked on struts before (always had trucks and sports cars).

I'm guessing get a spring compressor, pull the strut, and it should come out? Or is there more to it than that?

Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Brian

Thanks, the top link is exacty what I was looking for. I also have to do the half shaft, so it will work out that I get to do both at the same time.
