X-code spring swap question

I will be doing a swap for the x-code springs......I saw a post awhile back that had detailed instruction on how to get this done. I can't find the old post, it may have been a link to another members site, I'm not sure

Can anyone help with this?

I'm 1/2 way through the swap right now! I will tell you... having to torque to 185lbs will wear a person out!

The rear springs are HEAVY!

Yeah, that's a good pull on the wrench. And a (strong) helper is a huge plus for this job!
Once all the work is done you both should be smiling It's like a new truck!
Good Luck!
