Oh yeah! Only one side at a time!! As Slick mentioned the driver side was the hardest as i ended up taking off the knuckle with the axle still attached to gain better access. With the metal skid plate off it wasn't so bad taking the axle out. Loosened passenger side a couple turns and then carefully lowered the driver side about 1"-1.5" and that was just enough room to get to the mount nut and bolts and wiggle the mount out. Passenger side I didn't have to remove the axle but, same process as drivers. Engine vibration is all gone and she actually has a little more pep in her go!!
