I don't recall it being a hard job but there's really only one way to do it. If you do a search of this forum I'm sure you'll find some threads on this topic.

There are 2 ways to do it. A hard way and an easy way. The hard way requires dis assembly of the suspension and the removal of the radius arms. Or the easy way. Loosen the nuts by the radius arm bushings. Grind and punch the rivits out of the raduis arm brackets, drop the brackets/(attaching crossmember if equipped) and remove it. Replace the bushings and put 1/2 inch grade 8 bolts back where the rivits were. Easy as pie but takes about 3 hours depending how stubborn your truck is.
