[QUOTE="McGrath4u, post: 1187065, member: 16795"] Just did swapped mine this weekend. Wasn't too bad. About 2 hours aside if you look around in the front end for bearing play and checking iwe's. As everyone else said jack the truck up, place jack stands, remove the caliper and mount together ( I did this to minimize weight from the knuckle once you remove the uca), remove away bar mount (I put a jack under the lca to allow the away bar to come out easily), remove the tie rod, remove the upper control arm. Keep some metal coat hangers or zip ties around to hang the caliper and knuckle on. Disconnect the iwe vacuum line and make sure you are not pinching any on the lines as you droop the suspension out. Remove the three top shock nuts (15mm) and then remove the lower shock bolt. I used a 3' breaker bar. Shock should slide right out. Shoot me a PM if you run into any issues.
