It is a pretty simple job really. If you have a jack, lift the rear of the vehicle until you can place jack stands under the SUBFRAME of the Jeep. Then using the jack, place just enough lift on the axle housing to just BEGIN to lift the axle (maybe 1/2 inch or so) no higher. Unbolt the shocks, remove them, place in the new shocks. Then lower the axle back down, safely remove the jack stands from the subframe, and voila! shocks are done. Just remember, and I can NEVER stress this enough. ALWAYS work safe, don't get underneath a vehicle that is held up by only a jack. ALWAYS use jack stands. If you don't have any, many parts stores like AutoZone, and Discount auto will rent them for only a few dollars for the time you will need them. Good luck and tell us how things turned out!
