Answer
Steve,

You really need a book to do the job.  A Haynes Manual or a factory service manual will help.

First, jack up the car and block the rear tires and use jack stands.

Remove the tire.

Remove the tie rod end at the spindle.

Remove the two nuts that hold the strut onto the spindle.

Remove the center nut on the CV driveshaft.

Remove the caliper and hang it on the strut spring.

Remove the bolts that hold the CV driveshaft to the inner driveshaft.

Remove the CV driveshaft.

Installation is the reverse of removal.
