Your front end noise is definitely the strut nut being loose. You can install spring compressors to take some preload off the mount and use a coordless impact to turn the nut.
The garage door is the same height as the satellite antenna, maybe a smidge less as it squeezes through.

I will have to see if it can be easily removed without making or leaving a mess as I don't use it.

I wonder if cranking the strut nuts down will reduce my lift in the front... I guess I will be finding out.
