I would. Strut only shouldn't mess with the toe in/out, but it will likely mess with the camber when you reattach the hub/brake assembly. Not as big of a deal as the toe, so you can maybe get away with not doing it.

PSA for those who get the ABMs: they are projectors, but there are NOT HID projectors. Don't put HID bulbs in there. Agreed. I tried HIDs in mine at first. They were bright, but had bad flickering and tended to get hot in the housing. I run LEDs now and modified the dust boots to accommodate the he...

It's probably just stuck on due to not being used much (I'm guessing?). I'd try soaking the seal with some penetrating oil or something for a while and then see if you can gently twist and break it free.

It's a tight fit, but it should come out with enough wiggling and pushing the manifold inlet pipe towards the rear of the car. The pipe is attached to the electronic throttle body by a single hose clamp. In some cases, the hose clamp may be accessible with a long screwdriver and you can remove the p...
