Default I got my 4.30's

I'm going from 3.42 to 4.30. I have stock wheels and tires, so its going to be pretty steep. Anyway, where is the best place for me to get front diff removal instruction? I'm sure I can figure it out, I just like to see pics and read tips before diving in. It usually makes things smoother.

I'm not worried about the rar because I'll be doing it while its on the truck.

I found a thread where someone described it. Sounds simple. However, he mentioned loosening the steering box because the the idler arm was in the way. Has anyone else had to do that? Has anyone not had to do that?

Can't help with those but I can say that the only thing I don't like about my 4.30's is that I can only hit about 135 at 6400 on my 275/45/20s by then I need to hit 4th and there's just not enough torque to keep going.
On the plus side, I don't need to be going that fast anyway.
