Hi Bobby; I have attached a help article below which explains how to replace trailer leaf springs in 5 steps. I also attached an installation video. Between the two you should be able to install the # DX55CR without any issues.
Edit: I just double checked the video link and it isn't jumping to the right video. If you look at the product page for the # e54SR you will see the same video right below the product images.
