What!, I have just spent this afternoon trying to do this. I sprayed the bottom strut nut last week,Tuessday, yesterday and 1 hour before I tried to take it off. Yes it came of, and eventually so did the bottom ball joint bolt (which I forgot all about to spray before hand). As it is, I had to give up because I could not separate the lower ball joint. Will spray it with releasing all until,l i can have another attempt. Which will be in 2 weeks.
So 1.5 hours if all the nuts come off, and you can separate the lower ball joint - otherwise...:o
