Editing Rearend removal

 How to safely remove a rear end.

#While vehicle is on the ground, loosen lug nuts.
#Raise and support the vehicle body using blocks or a similar sturdy support. Make sure the rear wheels come off the ground.
#Remove wheels.
#Remove brake lines.
#Remove straps or c-clips from rear U-joint, and remove.
#Loosen and remove control arms or leaf springs while using a jack under the rear end to rail and lower the rear end making the job easier and safer.
#When everything is removed, and the rear end rests on the jack alone, lower rear end and remove it from under the vehicle. If you have coil springs they will most likely fall out at this point
