:dunno: I never had to bend or cut anything, when I took mine out a couple months back, it just fell out.

Did you take the axle tube off? If not, you are one smart dude or I am a total idiot.

No bud, I just took the CV axles off and the four bolts, it twists out a funny way, but it did just fall right out. It was probably dumb luck :lol:

Jack up the passenger side control arm for an extra inch of clearance.
