Well, I'm not worried about the front, there's only one way to do that and have it work. The only reason I'm doing the rear like that first is because I do not want to take the bed off just to make the measurements for the four link. If i'm going to take the bed off, I'm cutting something!

haha i like that, its always fun to cut stuff. it just never bothered me cuz the bed comes off so easy. even after i bagged mine, everything is on the frame. nothins mounted in the bed so it still comes off like stock.

I've never taken the bed off, so I was just assuming it wasn't going to be fun - like what about all the electrical items and the fuel tank filler?

its easy, all you need is a t-55 hex bit for the bed bolts. a philips screw driver for the tail lights and a small ass socket and ratchet for the fuel filler neck. take the tail lights out and the wireing from under the bed, its attached. take the six bed bolts out and the 3 bolts holdin the filler neck in and just lift it off.

Well, definately thanks for the heads up. Guess I'll just take it off one weekend and take some measurements and do it right the way I really want to do it the first time. I just didn't realize it was that simple.
