I will state the obviouse(sp) just in case. you have to remove the two bolt on straps on the rearend, slide that universal joint out then unbolt the cairrier bearing from the truck and slide towards the back of the truck. I would change the universal joints while its apart. I did this same job and replaced the universals and carrier bearing with spicer parts, I haul 500 gallons (over 4,000lbs) a couple of times a week and the universals and carrier from spicer have lasted longer then oem. you will also need a press to do the cairier bearing as I wouldnt pound that on it has to be straight.
