    So, I'm wondering if using an impact instead of a breaker bar would work. Yesterday when using the breaker bar the bolt literally was sized to the sleeve in the bushing. Or, I just grind both ends down and get a new bolt.

    The front bolt that goes through the frame support and the leaf. It's sized to the sleeve inside the bushing. Literally the last bolt I went to take off last night. I had to put the whole side back together to put it in the garage. I have work off today so I'm hoping to get it worked out.

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Is the impact air or electric? I found air to be a bit more choochy than electric...

    1/2 electric.

    It came with all the new bushings and stuff. The other side was a breeze. It's literally this one bolt seized to the bushing sleeve that's the problem.

    @icetreye and I had a set of lugs on his truck that were hung up good 'cause the monkey at the tire place used the air wrench to tighten them down. Fucker was bound up good and my 1/2" electric nearly broke ear drums trying to crack it.

    A few seconds with a cross-wrench and it was broken. Can't beat 1 asshole power I suppose...

    Thanks for that man, I appreciate it. That's what I was running into. I just got off the phone with Mcfaddendale Hardware in Santa Ana and they have a Grade 8 bolt the same size.

    We both know the greatness of asshole power... Especially in the bed of my truck :laugh:
    Unrelated but odd to think we both live in HB and haven't spotted each other yet :crazy:

    No going up main divide there's a part that I always get stuck on, result is to put a bunch of assholes in my bed to add extra weight and hit the pedal hard! :laugh:

    Ok I'm at the store and I know I should have taken the bolt of the other side. Can anyone tell me what the bolt size and length is for the front leaf spring frame bolt? I'll owe you!

    Right now I have a 9/16x 4/12" fine thread grade 8
