hey-Hey!!!,
It is not that big a deal. I will admit that it looked that way before I picked up the wrenches( did I really say that? ). See if you can set aside a weekend to do it; the longer you've got to forget about where/how it went back together the more troublesome it will get. Next, get some food storage containers to keep fasteners in; all mine went into a box, and sorting out the ones I needed as I needed them was a bit troublesome. Arrange them in order of removal( from your intact cab ) so it will be easier to lay your hands on them. Mine took just under three days.
cheers,
Douglas

No it won't help, think for a minute! Now when people search for "xxx" they will come up with another post saying "Do a search for xxx."

Very few things irritate me more than people saying "do a search".
