Well, after you drop the entire rear cradle assembly it gets much easier. It really isn't an overly difficult job but has it's PITA moments. There are a few places where I just have to ask myself WTF were they thinking. Some parts are really easy and no big deal too, like any job I suppose.
I don't sweat the valve on the jack too much. I doubt I could find a source for the valve so I just live with it since it isn't that much trouble and keeps me from leaving heavy stuff supported by a hydraulic jack which is a big

anyway. I'm fairly happy with it for the money spent.
