In fact, add that to my instructions... before getting the car in the air, disconnect the front swaybar on the corner that needs to be fixed.

OK, use Scott's instructions, with adendum, and if you want to be extra safe, throw the jack under teh strut before losening the last nut just to be safe. After all, I appear to be on a safety kick this week.
