If you're under there twisting the top mount to the correct orientation and the jack lets go, you'll lose your hand.

My concern was for the strut dropping out as you undo the last nut, and it flies accross the room.
So put it up on 2 jack stands in front, and put the jack under the strut to take the pressure off the nuts, and then let it down slow after removing the nuts.
