Lightbulb 3rd Genertation Camaro - Dropping Rear to Remove CatBack Tutorial (pics)

Hi everyone, hoping to get some advise so we can bank this one for the tutorials! Ok I have a 1991 camaro that has a flowmaster after cat exhaust system I need to take off and put on my 1991 convertible. After loosening the bolts I figured out that the after cat was not going to clear its way over the rear axle. So now i have to drop the rear axle in order to get the system off.

Things that need to get done:
- Disconnect rear brake line from body it is located on left top of axle (see photo)
- Disconnect track bar (aka panhard bar)
- Disconnect track bar brace (directly on top of panhard bar)

Just wondering if that is all that is needed? I took some pictures and I am left wondering the following:

- Will I have to bleed my brakes after I dissconnect the line?
- Will my shock and springs extend all the way down when I bring down the rear axle?
- Is there anything else I have to disconnect?

Just want to make sure I get everything down pack so I can make a nice tutorial out of it. Below are pics I just took.

Brake Line Connection to Body:

Well let me know what u guys think. Thanks to PonyEtrZ28 and 91-Z28-L98 for the feedback so far!
