is the rear sway bar connected to the axle, i just wanna make sure that im not disconnecting something that im not supposed to

So i got my rear strut out and i've jacked up both ends where the disc are dangling. I am now having trouble with getting the rear coil out, spring compressors wont fit!

wouldn't you want the end your working on to be drooping as low as possible so you can release coil compression?

i got the bottom bolt to the rear strut out, but when i try to loosen the top nut out the whole strut just spins along with it. What should i do? Also how can i get some space to take the rear coil springs out their doesn't seem to be enough room to attach the spring compressors.

I released the 2 bolts that connect the brake disc to the lower control arm to allow more space to install the lift kit but since the new strut is longer, it's pushing the lower control arm so down and i cant push the brake disc down to reconnect the 2 bolts. Suggestions?
