im pretty sure you dont need to take out the bolt that goes through the lower controll arm its a pain to get out i think all u need to take out is the both that hold the shock in plus the other bolts on top etc. i had problems with the bolt that goes through the lower controll arm and my car was on a jack for 3 days so i dont think u need to touch that
