front subframe
so on my 02 lx coupe I noticed my passenger front tire was a lot closer to the door side of the fender than my driver side so I know I need a lower control arm and maybe a sub frame. I now how to remove the subframe as far as supporting the car on stands and unbolting the rack and the subframe bolts, but mu question is does the engine and transmission have to be removed first

Re: front subframe
I'd leave the subframe and focus on the lca bushings and ball joint.
