I drained gear lube and replaced rear 12 bolt cover gasket, unhooked exhaust after the muffler, unhooked brake line, unhooked driveshaft, and then after I couldn't procrastinate with medial tasks any longer I pulled the rear axle in preparation for the dreaded task of removing the rivets that hold the rear spring hangers to the frame. Speaking of the number 12, there are 12 rivets that need to be removed. I used a cut off wheel to cut an X in the head of the rivets and then used an air chisel to cut them off. But you're still not done....the rivets need to be ground as smooth as possible and punched through the frame. Glad that's over with.

Red dirt was falling on me throughout the process. I'm all about wearing PPE but I still got some stuff in my eye that bothered me the rest of the night.
