If you think your nuts are going to be siezed on the studs, give em a good spray with some WD40 for a week first. Other than that it's pretty straightforward, just take your time, don't forget to undo the steering and mark it so you can line it up properly afterward. You may need an extender.

I have the steering extenders.. just not the will to start yet been lazy :sleepy:!  Hitting them with WD40 sounds good.  The stubs and nuts are not rusted but I'm sure something will go wrong.  Also the project nomad write up seems like it will help alot!

Thanks guys,
James
