you can use a vice grip to plug the brake line and if you block the front wheels you only need a set of stands under the frame rails in front of the rear end you can lower the rear end with the floor jack and it always helps to have a buddy there for the swap /
the night before id throw some liquid wrench or equivalent on the U Bolts and like two days after the job is complete make sure ya re check the u bolts
also air tools are very helpful in this situation
