Otc grappler puller plus harbor freight bearing press plates, much cheaper, there is a thread here somewhere.

No, should be able to do without removing the carrier or popping the ball joints. You do need the carrier to drop down a little so the strut bottom will clear the back side of the bearing to remove the stub axle and get the press tools in there, so you can remove the bottom bolt off the swqy bar link and maybe loosen the inner LCA bushing so that arm will pivot down. Maybe remove the tie rod ball joint if that blocks you but that is the easy one.

I used F.A.G. for mine when i did them in early 2016, still going strong many miles and track days later.

So would this:

Plus this:

Work?

Also, is the torque spec for the axle nut the same in the front as it is in the rear? 340ft/lbs?
