Thanks for telling me that DriftKing LOL. I followed the instructions from a manual that asked to remove the stabilizer links up front. Fortunately I got lazy when redoing the fronts and the next time around I left them in and just put my body weight to bring the wheel hub down when removing and installing the struts.

That is what I ended up doing also when I changed out the front struts on my car too. What a treat that was, on both sides the fork bolt head broke off (where the strut sits into) and then on the drivers side the bolt was siezed onto the bushing sleeve on the LCA. Through the power of a cutting wheel and a sawzall I was able to get the strut off and the bolts as well. Took me longer to do those front strut changeout then it did to do the timing belt/balance belt/water pump changeout!
