OK--I saved you the trouble--here's the first part of my post---When doing the front suspension over I start from the top and work my way down. I replace the strut inserts and top mount while the strut is still attached to the car. If you do not have to disturb the brake lines you'll save yourself a lot of grief.
1.Raise the front and support at the jacking points--front suspension hanging.
2.Loosen the bolt for the control arm front bushing and also the nut on the stud for the rear C.A. bushing (one is easy to reach the other not so much--you can remove the three bracket bolts to gain access but put them back in place to support the strut assembly. Dis-connect the sway bar from the CAs on both sides. Step 2 is to allow the CAs to swing down easily.
3. unbolt the brake line bracket on each side (one bolt, 12mm socket) lift the brake line over the body bracket. Take the three upper mount nuts off--the strut will drop--push it down far enough so the top clears the fender wheel. Put a jack stand under the brake disc "hat" so the strut is hanging out at an angle and supported. Now you can do the strut/spring/mount job. When that's complete jack the strut up into position and secure the mount to the body. -- Dave
