Unless you wanna remove the subframe it's easier to lift it outta the car if u remove the hood. Technically it's safer tho to lower it outta the car, less can go wrong. Depends on what ur looking for. The proper way... Lol or the way that is the fastest.

Indeed the Helm's manual says drop it down and out.
