What the hell are you trying to do? haha. Are you just lowering it? Taking the springs out?
If so just undo the bottom bolt that holds the shock on, while the you have a jack under the diff to release the tension on it. Pull the bottom of the shock off. Then lower the jack under the diff so that you can pull the spring out and your all done! Takes about 2-5 minutes.
