just do it yourself. disconect battery, and dont put a lot of stress on the vac line that goes into the hub. just make it easy on yourself and drop the LCA off the frame. Fastest and easiest way to do it. As long as you have a good floor jack it will be easy enough to get the LCA back on to the truck.

Also do yourself a favor and buy the moog/SPC alignment plates/bolts to make it easier to get/hold your alignment in check.

Hmmm, considering it. My uncle has been a mechanic in the army for the past 25 years working on tanks, humvee's, etc., and he has offered to help. He has the tools to do the job to. I'll have to look in to those plates/bolts. Never heard of them.
