Nice easy job for a bank holiday weekend...Yes not too bad if you don't encounter a rusted thread/nut on the top ball joint behind the strut - one with a crudded-up and rounded-off Torx hole
Eventually got it off with a combination of an angle grinder that was too big really, and a Hilka nut splitter from Screwfix cranked up with a 19mm socket on a torque wrench - that splitter thing seems to be made of fake metal but it just about got there...
