    Take off the end links and bushings then work it out from the side. It will come out when you get the right angle. I swapped mine and it came out that way. I had the lower control arms off at the time to put new ones in. Maybe that made it easier.

    Same way as you got it out. I took off one tire and undid all the links. You just have to rotate it and get the right angle and it will pull out eventually.
