While checking the fit without the brackets, I found the front bolts seized in the bushings. This ball joint press made short work of removing them, but it took an air hammer drift to push the bolts all the way through.

An impact driver is the WRONG tool to turn any pressure screw, but I had it on the lowest setting, with only ~50psi, and I didn't let it get up to full speed or even a full squeeze on the trigger.
