Do not remove sway bar bushing that's connected to lower controls arm unless you want to fight that spring back in. Remove bolts from lower strut to spindle, remove steering tie rod from spindle and let hang. Remove spindle nut. Use heavy Mallot and hit the lower part of spindle by spindle bolt should separate, remove replace and bolt back together. Posts: 439 | From: sactown | Registered: Apr 2009  |  :
