Hi, now the final and last step to this lift install today is the rear suspension. We are going to be removing the rear shock and removing the rear leaf spring by unbolting the four U bolt brackets that hold the leaf spring to the axle and then I am going to be taking out the actual leaf bolts to the shackle and to the front spring eyelid. Right now I will start taking out this shock which I had already unbolted. The next step also before you are doing this make sure that you have the rear end jacked up just for support. You don't want to put tension on it but just have the springs fully unloaded and then take out the eyelid bolts. And that is how you remove the rear suspension.
