I've done exactly this, with your configuration (2nd bypass). You have to pull the axles: (maybe drop swaybar), skid plate, diagonal truss, and bypass pipes, disconnect axles at tranny (duh), undo wheel nut and tap axle assy inbd and down/out. I had to use a bearing puller on one side to free an axle shaft, hopefully yours isn't frozen in the hub.

Were you able to pull the pipes without loosening up the muffler?

I'm planning to do the work myself at a shop so I will use the airgun to undo the nuts. I did it before not so long ago and both sides came out easy so I'm not too worried.

I'll order some axle nuts as well.. I didnt replace them last time.
