Definately disconnect the driveshaft before you tow.

If you can, bring an assortment of SAE and Metric open end and box wrenches, maybe sockets too. It is a piece of cake as stated, but sometimes it can be tough to get the right wrench to fit.

You may want to take some heavy wire also to "tie up" the rear portion of the driveshaft after disconnecting it from the differential. This way you won't have to remove the whole driveshaft, just move it well out of the way.
