Remove the nut for the lower ball joint and control arm. Clean the exposed threads outside the nut. Spray using rust solvent before removing the nut. Counterhold with Torx TX 40 at the ball joint pinion when removing the nut. This is so that the ball joint boot does not turn.

Remove the nuts for the anti-roll bar links. Unhook the links from anti-roll bar.
