    4x4 may be different... But I used my bottle jack on my PreRunner. The assembly slid right in and bottle jack helped with alignment of bolts. I did use stocks springs though.

    I used my bottle jack as well, but every time I got the assembly low enough to slide the coil/shock in they would hit the upper ball joint not allowing me to get it in...

    I just ground down the flange on one side of the bolthead. It was enough to be able to slide that long bolt all the way out past that ridge on the clamshell. Did not have to remove the diff drop.

    I do agree tho, replacing the steering rack bushings is difficult job. Getting everything to line up before torquing back down is the key. It also helps a lot to have an extra set of hands.
