I just jacked up the rear from under the axle and then set the jackstands on the frame so the tires where just off the ground when I removed the jack. Swapping the shocks was simple other than the top bolt on the drivers side because there is less access around the filler neck. It took und wet an hour for the whole job

You can jack from the differential, but put jacksrsndsnin the frame so when you lower rear end, the tires are off the ground
