Thanks everyone for the advice. Looks like I'll pull the wheels and then use jacks to support the front end and control arms.

One final question...the bilstein's have arrived and after looking at the parts it appears that there is only one lock nut to attach the top of the shock. I'm pretty sure that the stock shock absorber has two nuts to secure the top. Am I a nut short or is this normal for the newer shocks???

Thanks again for all the advice,
Ryan
