04-13 Mazda 3 - Front Strut and Sway Bar Link replacement

2007 Mazda 3. This required 2.5 hours to do both front stuts and sway bar links. That's the time it took to gather all the tools, jack up the car, do the job, put everything away and get cleaned up.
Any questions, feel free to ask in the comments :)
