Trying to get it off the car?

Unbolt brake line from bracket, unbolt fork from shock, unbolt fork from LCA, remove fork, unbolt top of shock from strut tower, pull shock/spring assembly out.

yeah, if you're having trouble maneuvering, you need to get the shock out of the fork, then you can tilt it right out. Now, if you can't get the fork off, that's another problem. You could always try unbolting the upper control arm - but remember to torque it back to spec and put back in the cotter pin to secure that bolt.
