Got lots of pictures too, if you need them.
I think I'm in the B&A as well.

did you have any problems getting the old spindles off, and how about the torsion bars
 






Wasn't too bad. I'd ripped into my brakes and ball joints before so it was almost old hat by then. Speaking of whiocih, good time to replace one or both if you haven't already gone through the stockers. Replace with MOOG regreasables.
I took a decent amount of pitures, but all-in all it wasn't bad. Did the spindles, and a rear SOA with a buddy. Long day, but we got it done. And again, neither of us had done anything to the rear springs before, so that was a learning curve (removing the axle/springs).
BTW, I got longer torsion bolts from someone on this board to even out the lift. Remember to adjust them a small amount at a time on each side intermittently.
