frame on stands, axle on jack or shorter stands. cut U-bolts. remove brake cable clips. remove or cut spring lower cup bolts. remove front bolts and slide arms out. reverse to install.

it's a bit easier with the bed off and out of the way too// gives you a great chance to clean up and paint the rear half of the frame at the same time
