Help with removing front struts
Okay so im taking the strusts off and I cant find any way to pop the break line out of the lil clip area. I pulled the tab out and cant get the rest of the line out. I got 3 of the 4 struts out and this last one is being a PITA. Any suggestions on getting it out without breaking the break line?

dont push them straight out like normal you want to (get the strut free)(remove 4 nuts ontop then the 2 bolts that hold them in) then the brake line remove clip then push down on the control arm so that the strut is half removed then push the fitting left or right opposite of the larger side of the fitting...it sounds complicated i cant seam to find the right words explaining it..they basically slide in from left and right they dont go straight in..
