You are going to have to have a mechanic evacuate the A/C system before you disconnect the lines going to the evaporator in the sleeper. Then you need to disconnect the heater lines along with any wiring. Try to trace the wiring and disconnect them at the connectors rather than just cutting the wires. If you have an APU, that also needs to be disconnected. It might also be a good idea to remove the exhaust stacks to give you some room and to prevent any damage. You are going to need some wood blocks to support the cab when you disconnect the cab air ride. That is most of what I can think of without seeing the truck. I hope you have a few friends to help out, be careful and good luck.

Bout sums it up from Dr diesel, pull some lining out the inside and unbolt cab/sleeper, then underneath cab to sleeper.
