This is very helpful. Easy enough to raise the engine up a bit. I think easier than lowering the whole subframe? Thanks!

You need a tripod my guy

Unfortunately, I'm doing this on the ground using jack stands. Job from hell! I strongly do not recommend this way. Now I have a 2011, with 198,000kms. I can't get the ball joints off. Castle nut is seized. Tried everything, a hammer, a pick, bar. Unfortunately the 19mm wrench did not cut it. So out comes the ''Bezel'' (cutter). Hacked off the nut. Still won't move. Tried the ''pitch fork'' approach...nada. With a 198,000 on the clock , I am tempted at simply replacing the knuckle and the hub/bearing, to get rid of the ball joint. Other than heat (torch) any recommendations?
