you are only using the pumpkins. bolts right in.

lift car up
take tires off
take driveshaft off pumpkin
drain gear oil.
take calipers off and brake cables, rotors
loosen backing plates
take an axle slide hammer, remove axles
loosen pumkin bolts, take old one out and install new one
Installation is in reverse order
