    Guys

    I'm replacing the front struts / whatever they are called and ran into an issue with the lower control arm on my 06 5 lug- It wont drop! I disconnected the strut / spring and got them out, but I'm noticing the Lower Control Arm has springs that wont let me push it far enough out of the way to slide the new stuff in. I marked / loosed the cam bolts and disconnected the steering knuckle so the LCA isn't connected to anything but....any advice or tips would be great from someone who has done this before

    i'm replacing the struts with below. Appreciate the help!
