Remove the lower ball joint if you have to remove them in the future. Then you don't have issues with the half shaft, etc...

I do have a set of M998 springs, front and rear, if you ever need them. I swapped out to a set of springs from Ron Hall Racing. Was told they'd give me more flex as I have a lot of rocky trails up here in NH.

I also pulled the front sway bar. I had made up a set of quick release pins but didn't really notice a difference on road with it disconnected so I pulled the whole thing.

It looks worse that it was...there is a inner lip on the plate and I used it for 2 springs in and out and it held the spring nicely, even when it dropped out onto the driveway twice...lol

I am done with the springs now...but ty. I tried to drop the bottom ball joint but trying to get at the bolts under the control arm was too hard...I could have popped the joint but I figured I would try the top see how it went...lol
