Ponye2,
Re-read
your DIY again. It made me wonder if Step IV-a could be done without Steps I, II & III if the Steering Box isn't going to actually be removed?
If I can take the cross member down without removing all that other stuff is the question, I guess? That would certainly simplify things greatly.
Oh, and as my photo ilustrates, my wheels aren't exactly off the ground, with the ramps I used. If I'm going to have to remove the wheels, I need a new setup.
