In the engine compartment, mark the relationship of one of the mounting studs to the body, then loosen the four upper mounting nuts. Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheel. Detach the ABS wheel speed sensor harness from the strut. Support the outer end of the lower control arm with a floor jack. Unscrew the nuts securing the strut to the steering knuckle, then tap the bolts out with a hammer. Use the floor jack to lower the knuckle to allow room to remove the shock absorber/coil spring assembly, but be careful not to overextend the inner CV joint.

Ensure the steering is unlocked. Loosen the strut upper mounting nuts but do not remove them. Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands, then remove the wheel. Have an assistant depress the brake pedal, then remove the driveaxle/hub nut. Remove the brake disc, separate the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle, and detach the stabilizer bar link from the strut. Detach the wheel speed sensor harness from the strut, remove the bolt, and pull the wheel speed sensor from the steering knuckle. Separate the control arm balljoint from the steering knuckle. Using a front wheel hub remover, press the driveaxle from the hub splines. Remove the upper mounting nuts and remove the strut and steering knuckle as an assembly.

Only loosening the fastener is required.
