Thanks for the props guys.
I've done it quite a few times if you didn't notice and I would have loved for someone to have written it out for me so I may as well do it for someone else.

I've actually broken the bolt that holds the rear lower part of the strut assembly at the control arm. You can avoid having to take that bolt off by taking the bolt off that holds the control arm to the brake assembly... you can't get that strut assembly out without lowering the control arm (at least not in my experience). If you take the bolt out that connects the control arm to the brakes then you will be removing the entire control arm with the strut assembly. It works, but it's a little more difficult to work with a spring compressor.

Good luck and if you need anymore help post or IM me. I'll hook you up.
