you fit the coils on the front then on the back if you buy a kit they will come with that manufacture torsion bar i.e AP or FK iirc

coilovers come with new dampers for tyhe rear which you change with the original ones, and then lower the torsion bar, and the spring and shock is removed from the front and the coilover is bolted in place
