94 Legacy Strut Replacement...a few ?'s

Hello,
I'm brand new here and am wondering if anyone could give me a heads up on changing the struts on my 94 Legacy Wagon. I do have a friend with a compressor for the springs but am worried that I might be getting over my head. If anyone knows of an online guide or just some good info they would like to share on this subject that would be awesome! Thanks so much for your time here!!

that should get you started...

I'd reccomend breaking #11 on the sheet(self locking nut) while the strut is still on the car and likewise tightening it fully when on car.
