I am in the middle of trying to replace my upper control arm, since my ball joint is shot. I can't remove the bolts holding the control arm in place because it is hitting on the front coil spring. So, I have to take out the strut/spring assembly. I figured I would take the top bolts off the strut, unbolt the tie rod, then slowly lower every thing with a jack until I could move the strut out of the way. The problem is that the wheel assembly isn't coming down enough to move the strut. Is there something that is stopping everything from coming down further? Sway bar?
