[tybardy]

yea from what i hear the torsion keys in the front are the more dificult part of the job... but i have a good lock on that portion.

I just dont know how to do the rear springs

Remove the nut on the bolts holding the lower shock mount. Jack the truck up just to the point where the shocks fully ectend w/o lifting the wheels off the ground. This will make it easier to slide the bolts out w/o ruining the threads. Once you remove the bolts, you can lift the truck higher w.o the rearend coming up with it and this will give you room to remove the old springs and install the new ones. Installation is as simple as reversing the process.
