Basically you remove the u-bolts, and the spring shackle bolts, and drop the springs enough to get the brake drums/backing plates through between the spring and frame. Put the shackle bolts back in, and install the new spring saddle under the axle, new u-bolts, and check pinion angle. Tack the saddles in place tighten the u-bolts and go for a ride. You will need a new lower shock mount too. Thats the simplified version.

I don't know if I have posted pictures of my truck on here or not but here it is. I know it looks rough but I am working on that. It is a 318 four speed truck with a 8 3/4 rear with 3.91 gears. I am also in the process of building a new motor well I'm actually building the motor thats in it. I am stroking the 318 and making it a 390 gonna run 9.5 compression with "J" heads and a 280 duration 480 lift cam.
