Yes. That about sums it up. You will need to drop the rear sub frame and take the rack out the driver side. It is a PITA, and time consuming. If you do end up doing this, make sure to mark where the sub frame was before you take it out. This can cause problems with the alignment. It may look good on the rack when they correct it, but it won't be. Just when you decide to tackle this, remember to take your time and do.everything right. It's better to leave your car in pieces for another day, than rushing to get it done that day an effing something up. Good luck, feel free to ask any questions. There is no such thing as a dumb question.
