So all the old front suspension is out. The coil springs were literally rusted to the lower control arms. Whats confusing is that the rust caused the springs to essentially weld themselves to the lower control arms but at the same time it rotted out the coils enough for them to break. The lower control arms were stuck on there so tight that I couldnt get the bolts out even with a hydraulic bottle jack so I had to get the torch out and cut them off. Im just glad the shocks are in great shape and that I can reuse them
