I would undo the lock nut ,then undo the bolt but leave just enough thread on the other side to stop the front axle bottoming out where I drew 2 blue lines ,you could take the bolts out completely but them the paint will be damaged when the axle is on full tilt so a little bit of the thread on the bolt against the axle will stop the paint on the axle getting damaged.Then tighten the lock nut to hold the bolt in place and do the same to the other side of the axle (left & right side bolts)
