To answer your questions.
1. Yes. The strut is #50 in the picture. The round arm attaches to the lower control arm with two bolts. Don't remove these bolts.
2. The number isn't visible in your diagrams but it is the long bolt at the top that goes through one end of the upper control arm, then the cross member and then the other end of the control arm.
Since this is an old thread are you trying to remove the spring from the front suspension?
Thanks for the help.
1. So, as far as I can tell, I need to undo the bolts connecting the strut to the lower control arm since these bolts also attache to the lower shock mount, in order to get the shock out. I have already undone these bolts but have not yet taken out the 3rd shock mount bolt in the back to take the shock out. I was planning on doing that next...... Am I missing something? How can I get the shock out if I don't undo these bolts? What is the harm in undoing these bolts for the strut?
2. Okay I see it. It's the long bolt that attached the two ends of the upper control arm.
Yes, I am trying to remove the spring. Replacing all bushings...
