So I need to physically remove the strut to do the tower mount?
Sorry I am a little confused.

I am not replacing the strut. The tower mount just has a crack in it and is allowing the strut to move slightly which is a problem so it needs to be replaced. I have the new tower mount in hand ready to go.
