See if anything's in thee. I believe the shocks/struts are there and you can just swap out the springs while you have the arms dropped. The rotors are easy as shit. Just take off your calipers and pull the rotor off. As for the pads...same damn thing inside your caliper. Take out old; put in new.

Well the good thing is pretty much all of those things go hand and hand. For example to take out the springs u have to disconnect and remove the shocks, rotors, and brakes. I can't speak for the brake lines but everything else's installation is the opposite of removal.

Easy. Start from the furthest caliper away from the master cylinder and work your way to the closest. I.e you'll start at the rear passenger, then the rear driver, then front driver, then driver. If you need more indepth details just do a search on how to bleed the brakes on google and you'll find a ton of write-ups.
