I just jacked the car up on that side enough to get some room, leaving the tire firmly on the ground. Same procedure. Bit of a wrestle if the shocks are good.
Changing the strut is similar, just put a jack stand under the control arm and you will be fine -- leave the weight of the body sitting on the jackstand. I took the strut off to replace a ball joint. No problems.
