9)      Remove ½” bolts (1/2” crescent wrench) that hold rear support straps from rear p-rail to each side leg.

10)  Remove ½” bolts that hold front square “holy tube” that attaches to each side leg.

11)  Remove ½” bolts that hold each side leg to front and rear p rail.

12)  Remove center leg if needed leaving just the p rail which will resemble a ladder.
