I changed the struts on my 240 a couple of weeks ago. I found that disconnecting the tierod end from the lower A-arm allowed me enough travel to bring the strut out from under the fenderwell. As previously stated, loosening the gland nut before swinging the strut/spring out will make the job easier. I used an air-chisel for this.
