I found the really good way to remove the Mono Shock Skid. Put a block of wood under the front part of the skid, this will take the tension off the limiter strap. Remove the 2 lower bolts from the strap. Remove the 3 screws from the RA. Remove the front Bolts and nuts. Remove the rear bolts and the suspension will pull right out. To replace, follow this sequence in reverse.
