There is not enough clearance for the tension struts to come out without disconnecting the output shaft from the wheel bearing. You do not need to completely remove the shaft as there is enough play to move it aside once it is disconnected by pulling the collar bolt (see photo). I've attached the full shop instructions for those interested.
