It's that simple. Disconnect the drop links unbolt the cap slide off the bushing reverse for assembly. A little lithium grease will aide installation and squeaks later

You need to jack up both rear wheels before you disconnect the drop links and disconnect the sway bar.
If one or both wheels are sitting on the ground, the sway bar is under tension and difficult to remove.
