Lowering the front and pulling the front leaf spring tips
I have the easy part done, which is lowering the rear of the car.
Now I have to pull the front leaf spring to lower the front with the Mid America Design front lowering kit.
Looks like pulling one of the lower control arms will be the toughest part. I am going to drop the passenger side lower control arm.
Looking for some tips on the job from others who have done this.
Thank you in advance!

I didnt remove any control arm when I did my front spring. Just make sure you get the front of the car high in the air. I swap a standard spring for a Z51 spring. The standard had more arc to it than the Z51. Was a little tough for that reason as I did not have a lift. Putting Z51 spring in was easier than getting out.
