Quickest
Undo the 36mil nut over the front hubs with car down
Then jack and take off wheels as you would
Undo top suspension struts
Undo lower arms from sub frame
Undo track rod ends
Undo bolts holding anti roll bar
Drain gearbox fluid
Pry out os drive shaft
Ns has that longer shaft
Get dirty taking that 1 out
You dropping from under or lifting?!?
Lifting is better
Just undo the mounts and undo your plugs And little ancillaries And its a piece if payliss

But putting if back with arms connected to hub is a night mare to put back
It's always best to go thru it all piece by piece
Take your time cuz you don't want to make a mistake
