The rear spacers are easy. Get 2 jack stands preferably the tallest you can find and use the max height setting and support the frame. Remove tires. Place jack under pumpkin and support lightly. Remove sway bar link on each side and the lower shock mounts. Move lower shocks clear of the axle. Use jack stand to lower axle pull springs clear. Follow topgunz instruction for their spacer. Install in reverse.

I did forget to say that I used a spring compressor to reinstall the coils. After fighting the front all night Friday night I was tired. Autozone didn't charge me anything to borrow them other than a security deposit.
