no pics, but it isn't hard. are you doing front or rear irs bolts.

for rear bolts, put jack stands on subframe connector if you have them or on the frame rail at the torq box. use floor jack to support rear IRS frame and apply light pressure. remove factory bolt and you will probably have to raise the floor jack just a little and pull the bolt out. put the new one in and torq it.

Thanks. I'm doing the rear IRS bolt to mount new wheels.

Did you get 315s? Any pics? I am doing my 10.5s and 315 Nitto's this coming week, and will be replacing my IRS bolts as well. Any tips? Did you get spacers? I am not going to run any as I am told replacing the bolt should be enough.

The bolt will be plenty...I run the same combo with the low profile bolts...
