Roll Me Over

It is far easier to just undo the top ball joint, everything then just tilts away from the vehicle. I know thge manuals don't call for this, but it is so much quicker and easier. If you don't, you spend a lot of time fighting with it trying to get it all back together. As 4crawler mentioned, now would be the time to switch the studs to bolts.

More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else.
