I've tried to release the bottom nuts holding the front suspension. Can anyone give me some suggestion to release them? or just go to garage to release all the nuts and i fit them myself

get a long bar and slide it over the ratchet handel that will give you a bit more leverage,

also get a mate to hold the spanner at the other end

+have you jacked up the hub as this seems to help as it takes off some of the weight

what age is your car??

I think they are 18mm. I used an adjustable resting on the brake disc and a 12" long ring spanner. Drivers side is the easiest
