After removing one of the 2 bolts on the lower part of the strut. Unclip the Brake line from the strut or when you remove the 2nd bolt it will pull on the line could cause a break.

In the upper right hand corner of this pic you can see the brake line clip and also the grove on the strut that it goes in.
Now Unbolt the top of the Strut.(Do Not Remove the center nut Until you have a spring compressor on the spring.)

Remove the Strut

Use the spring compressors to compress the spring before removing the shaft nut.

Remove the center nut when the Strut Mount Spins.

Make sure you dont lose this tab it allows you to tighten the strut nut.

Working on Storing the rest of the Pictures. Will post the rest soon
