Impact gun?
If not, are you reusing the struts? If not, try Vice Grips on the strut shaft to hold it while someone loosens the nut.

nah i'm not reusing the strut, i got kyb's to replace them with. so vice grips should work? cause i don't have impact gun money lol.

vice grips with open wrench. i would just remove all the bottom bolt. and take out the top center bolt while its in the car its safer.

We got it done on sunday. Lower control arm was messed up when we disassembled everything, so we grabbed another one from the junk yard and put my kyb shock on in like 10 minutes. I'll get new pics by tomorrow.
