you forgot all of the swearing involved, especially when putting it back in.

 

shift linkages?

 

And get a new compression pin to replace the old one.

You don't have to remove the axles. Just pull the shock assembly out, separate the LCA from the hub, pop the axels out of the box and swing them out of the way. (I think this is what Kamin meant, I just wanted to clarify before you fight the 32mm nuts)

 

see sig
dont forget that one

other then that, everything above seems correct.
dont forget proper torque for the bolts. and fluid.

 

oh yea
duh.
