First time attempting to change struts, I have the spring compressors and wondering the manuals say to detach the wishbone, detach the track rod arm from the spring/damper strut, besides compressing the spring,taking loose the upper strut mount and detaching the brake caliper and tieing it up, are the first two steps necessary, are there any short cuts without having to take a wad of stuff loose or is every step pretty necessary to change the strut cartidge?

Thanks
Ron
