Hi David,
I think you got it pretty well sorted. I just did this job about 8 weeks ago.
My advice:
Take photos of everything, specially about the position of the washers on the wishbone mountings. Don’t mix them up, put them in labeled plastic bags.
To remove the steering is straightforward. First, while the subframe is still in place , remove the steering arm from the steering box. Everything else is really logical.
No need to cut and weld anything, at least on the 411.(sorry, but in my opinion someone who does this „cutting and welding“ is just to lazy to do a good job).
While doing this subframe removal I suggest that you inspect and if necessary replace all metalastic bushes etc. I send all parts to be bead blasted and repainted. You will never be able to access all the parts so easily again.
After finishing don‘t forget to have the track aligned.
I have attached some pictures of the job I have done.
Regards
Thomas
