Removal of 91 prizm parts for corolla HELP?!

I NEED the coil springs from a 1991 prizm Geo For my 91 corolla!, These Springs are in Perfect Condition and they're from a junkyard, so the guy informed me he will sell all 4 for the springs and shocks for $100 if I Pull them off and $150 if someone pulls them off, I REFUSE to pay the extra 50! He also says he refuses to sell the springs seprate so f*** it,!
A) so i was wondering what tools i need?
B) How to take them off? (pictures/write ups/ both are best!)

i really need this done!

ALSO!
I Might as well grab a Boot that i need. SO! I went to autozone, Thought it was the inner cv boot, i get it, and go check out the part that boot is fine,
so then i decide ok, i;ll return it tomorrow get my money back, no big deal, so then i go to school the next day, ome back, My aunt cleaned my room, and she threw away the receipt and bag! F***!!!:he adbang:
Ok whatever i got money to spend to a certain extent, whatever,
Well i needed to know which boot it is, what its called, i'll just end up buying it new, but i need to know which it is/ what its called.
Its the one behind the inner cv boot. like there's 3 visible ones, the first right behind the wheels, then following on the same rod or whatver, its the inner cv boot.
The one i need is for the one thats on a SEPERATE rod, I'LL POST PICTURES AS SOON AS I CAN! but i hope ya'll know which one it is. Let me know how to get it off or something,!

The boot that's torn in the pic is for the rack and pinion unit not for the CV joint.

You should be able to return the boot without a receipt, especially if it's in the same new condition it was when you bought it (and if you have the package). They might give you store credit, or if you paid with a card, they can work some magic with that.

just to put it out there you might be able to find springs for around 45 bucks for all 4 on ebay. i know for about 150 you can find aftermarket/performance springs

haha LIKE I SAID! This was the first day i dropped and painted the rims!
The Rims came with my car when my grandpa bought it, the rims naturally came along lol,
The Corner Lights are NOW Clear corners that i picked up from eBay.
Its a good Looking car, but i would like to lift it back up!, the rims are chipping the paint, the rear dropped another inch since its been driven AND i threw 2 twelves in there! aghhh, -_- i made the best of my situation with my car,

OH and the Rims are MB Motoring wheels!
I know there's some uglier looking replicas that look flatter and thinner and uglier, but these are WAYYYY better!

Have you checked if its on adjustables..? I kinda suck at reading anything longer than a few sentences. If they're cut/heated that would explain the random decrease in ride height in the back... Hmmm. I would explain thoroughly how to remove and replace coils but it's been 6 years since my 'Vic (the car I did everything to and lost in a fiery ball visible from space). Took like 6 hours though, I reckon.
