Yes you will need to realign the vehicle after loosening the strut. All you needed to do is remove the ball joint stud and tie rod end from the knuckle, and remove the axle nut. Use a long pry bar or pipe etc. To pry the lower control arm from the knuckle. By doing it this way, you won't need to realign. Either way will work, you still need to remove the tie rod end also. Hope this helps
