Barring any unforeseen difficulty (PB blaster on all hardware and pray), give yourself the better part of a day to do it.

Safely raise the back of the car on jack stands, support the rear with another set of jack stands, and start undoing stuff:

Sway bar, lower shock bolts, rear control arm bolts, drive shaft, torque arm, wheels, tires, brakes/lines, e-brake, etc

Then use a jack to lower the rear from the car.
