Default Torsion bar removal

I need to remove my keys.

I read I can use a BJ press/c-clamp or a 2 jaw puller. I don't really feel comfortable using the puller. Barely feel comfortable using the c-clamp from a BJ press kit.

However, should I go the C-clamp route what is the procedure?

Lift front of truck up so wheels are off the ground. Jack stands.

Use c-clamp to lift key up just far enough to remove key bolt and keeper?

Then lower key by releasing c-clamp pressure?

I've never worked on anything automotive with such safety hazards so I'm a little shy here.

Any tips and direction would be awesome. I don't want to F myself up doing this ...
