they are not hard to do as seen in video
the biggest problem is the front bolt , it is a bear to get out
i use my electric impact and loosen it ,then spin away till it gets warm , then tap it out with hammer , they get rusty

As long as you keep the jack under the diff it should support it. I had no issues with mine. I pulled both sides apart at the same time because I made up the leaves at work and wanted to match the arch to level my cart.

I may have misspoken. I rebuilt my rear-end independent from my spring replacement. I probably just replaced one spring at a time, without removing the rear-end/motor.

Gettin' old.

Yurtle, before the internet I tore up lots of stuff learning how to do it. I don't tear up near as much now that I'm over 50.

I'm only 51, but retired. I gotta get another job to keep my mind active. I used to juggle lotsa stuff at once. Now I feel like I'm losing that ability.

I used to destroy lots of stuff before the internet. This internet thing is alright in my book.

Same boat Yurtle. In between my ornamental ironwork business, helping neighbors, and volunteer opportunities with the Kiwanis and Civitans I stay busy. Usually daylight to dark.

I'd love to blame retirement, the Internet, or something...

In fact, I was gainfully employed when I did this. Just don't remember.

I received my HD springs today but didn't get an opportunity to install them today.

So much for one at a time
