Impala rear strut mount removal

Hey guys,

I don't know if anyone here has a 2000 impala. I need to replace the strut mount, but I haven't even taken a look at it yet. Will I be able to remove it without removing the struts?

steps:
1. I loosen the strut mounting bolts from the trunk
2. I jack the car up but keep the wheel barely touching the ground
3. Do I have to remove the strut to pull out the mount?
4. Reassemble and lower vehicle.

is there anything I should watch for? Will I need a lot of torque to remove the strut from the lower linkage?
