8 Hours later and 3/4 of the way done. not bad for only having done it once before 7 years ago and for my dad never having done it ever. The hardest part was having to cut off the spare tire because the previous owner thought it would be a great idea to install a 2nd rate hitch that got in the way of lowering the tire.
Well more in a couple of days after the x-mas party and the job is done.
I soaked all the bolts with a penatrating oil 24 hours prior to staring the job and they came right off with use of an impact wrench. The only thing I needed to cut off was the chain holding on the spare wheel and I used that ball joint spreader on the steering damper.
