My thought is to remove the cross brace and see if I can get the strut into the hub without removing the drive shafts. If I attempt this, do I run the risk of tearing one or both boots? Is that why removal is recommended?

I knew this project was going to be a bear, but I did not realize it was this stinking involved. It's just bolts and nuts, but wow it's a lot.

And if the answer is "absolutely remove the drive shafts from the tranny for this job to keep from doing damage to them" do I need to buy new nuts if they're nylon lined? If so, I need to get those in hand before I start taking off the drive shafts.
