from my previous experience on removing lower A-arms, and my experience of replacing a tosion bar achor bolts i can tell you that the worst part of the whole job is removing the rear bolt that connects the lower A-arm to the frame. that bolt is splined and goes into the torsion bar anchor thru the frame and lower A arm. Use lots of WD-40 and be careful not to strip out or destroy the threads when you hammer it out. removed torsion bar , torsion bar anchor, shock, sway bar end link, and separate the spindle from the lower A arm. half shaft does not need to be removed. it can be done with proper tools and patience but that rear bolt i previously mentioned caused the usage of many swear words. i dont think the job is worth half a day of labor, but i can see how it could take that long in the worst case senario.
