Vette(s): 1974 L-48 Auto. Just your basic Vette. GM crate motor w/vortec heads and intake. Crane cam. Scorpion rockers, Edelbrock carb. Lots of parts still in boxes... :(
I did mine with the trailing arms off the car and the spindles removed, to change the rear wheel bearings.  I can't imagine doing them on the car...

Just posted my tips in a new thread.  It's not as bad as it sounds, once it's all said and done.
