Just the removal of the rivets on the brackets of your leaf donor frame and bolting them up on your coil frame (after you remove all of the coil related stuff )

Just one quick little thing here is depending on what vehicle this is, I think 71 and newer had wider axles, this may be the only real issue, if you are pulling existing axle setup out of a leaf unit, you will probably be OK. Just a FYI..
