Rear suspension and bearing DIY's?

Looking for the DIY's to do the rear of my X. Looking to do everything at once, since it will be on my friend's lift.

Thanks!

@Mike. I'm afraid we don't know what car, year, platform you have - so difficult to fully give you guidance (I've done a LOT on the E53, so I can endorse Ricky-Bobby's note). Home many miles / km on your car?

Suggestion for all posters - put your model & key options in your signature line - makes it MUCH easier for all of us to help each others.
