No, you shouldn't need it. Just jack the truck up so the wheels are in the air and loosen the adjuster bolts. You might have to do a little prying or something to get them started after you put the new keys in.

No problem. That's what this forum is for. Much better to ask questions than to screw something up.

Thanks! The paint job is the only part I didn't actually do myself, lol. At least I picked the color.

Yes you will need to pry down with a crow bar close to the tbar cross member to get the old key off and the new one on. It aint hard at all. You got any questions just ask. I just did mine a few months ago
