I made a little progress tonight, on the driver side, finally.
I got the outer tie rod end disconnected from the spindle and removed the strut hardware, then managed to get the spring out without killing myself.
I’m not confident I got the ball joint moved enough but I assume (hope?) I can find a way to sort that out once I get the old LCA hardware out and pull the LCA and spindle out.
Still need to separate the spindle from the LCA…any suggestions on the best way to do that now that since it’s out of the car?
I might have a little bit of garage time tonight but I suspect even getting this one side done will be a long process due to time limitations/adult responsibilities this month.
