Lincoln Town Car Struts Problem
I am replacing the front struts on a 2005 Lincoln Town Car. Besides the 3 bolts on top and the bolt underneath, are there any other front suspension parts I need to remove in order to remove the struts?

Nope. Just be sure to use a real spring compressor because these are very small and stiff springs. If you use the little pair of toy compressors that are a threaded rod with a hook on each end, you'll need to install them while the car's weight is compressing the spring, then hope they don't break and cause serious injury if the spring releases.
